It is not an easy thing
To be alone.
For them to leave you
To your own devices.
For they never leave you,
Not really.
Silence is always there,
If sensitive and
Occasionally reclusive.
Thought can't leave,
Not even in sleep.
Thought and Imagination
Are good friends,
They collaborate often on
Many projects.
Small, wild things.
Things they only show you
When you Dream,
And Silence is at your side.
No, it is not an easy thing
To be alone.
You are never really alone,
Merely by your Self.
In Sleep they are there.
Thought, to remind you of the day.
Imagination, to make it interesting.
And Silence to keep the peace.
It is not an easy thing
To be alone.
But I find I like it that way.
