Alone With You

Alone With You

Sitting here all alone with not a care in the world
I abdicate all other things, just my mind to roam
Buoyed by latest happenings in my life,
I sat quietly musing on events of the past
I really love the fact that I am alone
As a company feels like a crowd right now
I have come to realize I enjoy my own company
Iโ€™m not being narcissistic, just trying to be real
Just then, I thought I heard footsteps
I swirled around and found you standing
You fortuitously walked in on meย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย 
I wasnโ€™t happy and called you an intruder
Told you to leave me alone but you wonโ€™t budge
You want to be alone with me
You want to share my troubles with me
You want to help carry all my burdens
I was enthralled by your display and let you stay
So, here we are sitting together
No words spoken, but our hearts wonโ€™t stop conversing
Iโ€™m glad you stayed with me
As I really love being alone with youโ€ฆ

It is difficult to find happiness within oneself, but it is impossible to find it anywhere else.

~ Arthur Schopenhauer

For all his greatness as a thinker and philosopher, I think Schopenhauer got it wrong on this one...and your poem puts the counter-argument acrossย eloquently; the secret is to find someone with whom you feel comfortable being alone.

No words spoken, but our hearts won't stop conversing

I adore this line...on the literal surface, it's clearly nonsensical; but the more profound truth of it may be apprehended by anyone who has ever been in love. When you're in love, your heart never shuts up...and neither does his/hers.

Beautiful poem...infused with the wise core of your very being.

I'm not really very good at being alone, yet I do crave it at times! I find being away from company makes me know how much I need People around... usually for my own sanity!!ย 
i really liked this one Rose gave me lots to think about

We all crave some kind of solitude at times....I'm might sound absurd but I so much love it and I "soliloquise" a lot and enjoying it....It sound like I'm crazy, right?...Thank you very much for your words Lorna....I'm thrilled you enjoyed it...Lots of love

Hey Your-Roseness!!.....I don't know why but it seems I keep missing your writes of late..... glad I caught this one......I find being alone to be very helpful.....I spent three years alone bedridden because of my illness..... my problem is that now others find it to be a bit "self-indulgent ".......I find it to be a place of healing.... and comforting thought....... anyway, I thought I'd share that with you...... the world is made up of SO many personalities...... whatever works for you is all that Really matters ultimately......" As I really Love being alone with you ".....I LOVE that line ~ it says so much more than its face value!!......ALL STARS!!...... well done girlfriend!!.....LOVE and ROCKETS!!......T xo ?โ˜€โœดโœณโ™ฅ

Yaaaay!!!...You won't believe I'm dancing right now...I have this wide grin on my face that's making me look funny....So happy to have you stop by Tony...I've really missed you...I don't see such as self-indulgent...My low self esteem made me an extreme introvert...So I can completely relate with the "self-indulgent" thing...Thanks for sharing with me...Find it very inspiring when ever you share about your illness and struggles make me want to be like you "when I grow up"...I'm you no. 1 fan on Cosmo....Thanks for being you boyfriend!!...LOVE and ROCKETS!!...

Hi my dearest poet friend,ย 
sorry for the late response ## I really can relate to this, ## so straightforward ## I am good at being alone ever since my divorce in 2003, I guess, ย I'm used to it already ; preoccupied with household chores, my dog, my daughter, my volunteer works ## but I do miss the company of a GOOD COMPANY sometime ##

" sat quietly musing on event of the past "

Oh!! ย grab the photo albums, ย the videos, letters from love ones back home -- so therapeutic ##
I enjoyed reading this --ย 

hugs and kissesย 
Leahย

Hi Leah, I am very sorry it for not responding when I was supposed to.
I have been off for a long time. Longer than I have ever stayed away from Cosmo.
I think as myself as my own best comany. Of course it's therapeautic as you rightly mention.
Thank you very much for your words Leah
