There are those who walk this earth alone
Who enjoy the gift of solitude
They can enjoy the thrill of a purchase without sharing with another
A solo date makes their heart beat faster
They don't miss a person they've never had or crave a feeling they've only dreamed of.
For them, life is an adventure either way,
Alone or together
But I'm not like that.
I want to walk the streets with someone else
Share a smile over a cup of coffee
Wait for the bus together
Holding hands under the blazing sun.
Every moment alone makes me queasy
I crave the comfort of another person
The way others crave their alone time
And I wonder if it makes me
Just a little bit less.
