Trapped Sensations

Solitude

"Solitude"
What's that?
Sometimes a heaven, at times, hell.

Peace and calmness everywhere
No one to disturb, no one to get distracted from,
And perhaps, no one to compare yourself with.

Wait, what to write?
Pros or cons?

Okay!!!✋
Let's go with the cons first.
Because
"Only in the darkness can you see the stars."

Lonliness pops in when your soul realises
Your friend circle doesn't even feel like a circle.
It's literally like a burnt out matchstick.

Perhaps, you chose this life yourself
But emptiness pops in,
During your summer breaks and winter festivals.
When you check out pictures of everyone's outings,
With #bffs!
The voidness of your heart cries out.
This popular feeling makes it even emptier.
Perhaps this is your age-old normal experience,
But still you feel the need for more friends.

The inevitable sensation of missing something out in life
Haunts you even more
And you plunge yourself right into your leftover assignments.

Your conscious mind knows
That the best place one can live in
Is in their ownshelves.
Hence you start romanticising your own life,
It makes you happy in some way.

No🤦‍♀️
It's not that depressing as it sounds
Solitude doesn't resonate with sadness,
Only once you master it.

It gives you time to embrace your singularity,
To enhance your creativity,
To welcome simplicity
And not to mention
to upgrade the relationship with you and yourself.

"It's easier to stand in a crowd
Than choosing to stand alone."

And you do that everyday, darling!
Be proud!
Save a treat for yourself, later. 🍎

Never forget,
You stand alone
You vibe alone
You are happy alone
And that's your speciality
Your singularity
You are a strong soul.
Smile for your self.
