A Poem by Joey Martinez

I enjoy the presence of family and friends 
I wouldn't consider myself a lone wolf looking to make amends 
I just thoroughly love to be alone
Muting intolerable tones that come out the mouth of people who are nothing but drones 
Flying around society offering nothing but skin and bones 
its ironic how my mind can be so toxic but I enjoy its presence once it vomits the nonsense 
I'm not the one to speak I'm the one who stays quiet and seeks 
Looking for those precious ideas that urge to leak 
And many confuse my silence for shyness 
Thinking i'm too spineless for conversation
Not knowing my mind is on another planet already leaving its station 
The point is this 
i like to be alone and wonder what information i received and what i missed 
I'm a thinker
A sinker of my thoughts 
Searching for gold but nothing has been caught
So let me be
Being alone is when I feel the most free

"Muting intolerable tones," and "on another planet already leaving it's station." Love these lines especially. Thank you for sharing.
