Soledad

Waking, alone, each day, to an agenda for one. There is liberation in lonliness, there is freedom in it. But, there is always the thought, "what if...?"

Enjoying the beauty of a sunset over a majestic river while alone brings you closer to all of things... including solitude.

Remembering a scene of life, triggered by a song, bringing you back to a time of togetherness.

Wearing my pajamas for no one but me.

Sleeping with nothing but a pillow and my dreams. Waking to nothing but the sound of an alarm and the task of the day ahead.

The feeling that pathetic movies about lonely people might start to draw a picture of your life.

This is what lonliness is, and you've brought it upon yourself.
