only the lonely know

only the lonely know

A Poem by J. B.
"

a philosophical take on the concept of being infinite

"
To be infinite is naught but
an ongoing hypothetical; an
attempt to add precision to a concept
impossibly inconceivable to those
yet to conquer

permanence.

It is with but humble revelation
to have
stumbled upon some semblance of understanding the concept. That is;
to be infinite is to endure only one consistency: the cycle of inclusivity that ultimately begets to the solitary.

to be everlasting is to be isolated
to be infinite is to be alone

only the lonely know

Interesting musings.....

Some of us are more qualified than most to write on the issue of loneliness; we all have periods in our lives living in its shadow but only the true pilgrims of loneliness can endure for great lengths of time. As melancholic as it may appear, it is those that can endure solitude that are best equipped to handle the ups and downs of life. For it breeds self reliance, heightened emotional awareness and sense of self. As you have stated here: only the lonely know. Yes, we do know.

A fine write.

this structure is fantastic and it works harmoniously with your words and the immensity of the themes
philosophically, i believe it puts emphasis on solitude as an opportunity to find spirituality, whatever form that may be, and from this, a person, their soul, spirit, whatever, at once becomes infinite
the person is no longer tied to the boundaries of human life and yet to achieve this would be impossible without utter isolation
then there is just loneliness itself, the vast, endless, desolate space a person finds themselves existing within, the infinite dimension of being alone
