All Alone

With solitary thoughts

By Julie LacksonenPublished 3 months ago 1 min read
Celine sings it best. This one is for fun.

Sometimes contentment

-choices

-solitude

Often resentment

-choices

-solitude

*

What works one time,

feeling sublime,

The next day fails,

Everything pales.

*

Sometimes great

-routine

-independence

Often desolate

-routine

-independence

*

How great it feels

To choose one's own meals,

Until it's a bore

To cook and clean once more.

*

Sometimes tranquility

-quiet

-repose

Often insanity

-quiet

-repose

*

Relish the peace

Until feeling silence increase.

See, hear, touch someone

Before coming completely undone.
