Solitude should be man’s best friend
A chance to get away from it all
To breathe a sigh of relief
To ride our train of thought clear past the threshold of our imagination
To embrace the silence and to revel in it
Speaking of silence
Hello my old friend
Its been a long time since we’ve been alone together
All the nonsensical blabbering I endure keeps me from being with you
Small talk that is only meant to chip away at my sanity holds me back
But alas, I cannot fight against social protocol
So I let it drown me and my thoughts
While those without any float to the surface and enjoy the sun
It’s funny how those with the most imagination form the least opinions
While those with hardly any judge us for ’thinking too much’
So I divert al my focus inward
For if I am to perish on my island
There’s none I’d love more by my side than my own thoughts
