Being Alone

The feelings of being alone
who else knows but the one
who chooses to be alone
either to watch
his roof day and night,
or to converse with birds
and plants in their dialects,
or to talk sense
and nonsense to self,
folly and ecstaticity together,
others may call it eccentricity…

But the feelings of being alone
who else knows but the one
who chooses to be alone,
when life wills to enter
an unknown phase,
when heart beats fall
into the rhythm of cerebrum
soothing every nerve and vein
in a perfect harmony,
to facilitate a companionship
of choice in the loneliness
that is often encountered
in the crowded places
these days…
