A Lonely Soul.

A Lonely Soul.

A Poem by Onlyme

A lonely soul
cannot protect themselves
totally from the outside
world.

They believe they can.
By isolating themselves
from the hurt, pain and
the outright chaos of
mixing with
others and life in general.
By drawing away from life
completely if they could.

All you end of doing it
living in a fake unrealistic
world of loneliness and not
developing as a human fully
for yourself.

Believe me, I have been and done
that and still to a strong degree
am still there at times.

We think we can protect ourselves
better by being on our own.
And that no one, can affect us at all.
But they do still. As we still at times
crave company, compassion, empathy,
love, understanding and so forth.

Don't get me wrong it's good to have
quality time for yourself. But we as
humans need bonds with other humans
and to communicate and evolve and
develop.

We have to reach out and move forwards
and mix to help ourselves and others to grow
and learn.

I know, you do get,  the odd human being
on this planet who are happy long term
living as a hermit. But eventually, over
years, they come back to the fold of
wanting to be with others again.
Even if only for a short spell at a time.

As the loneliness is overpowering and eats
away at the spirit and the soul.

We all need a friend, a lover a soulmate
and a buddy just to chat with at times.

Even though we are our own human being
in general.

It's just finding that happy balances of
enjoying others and your own time as well.
To grow as a human and be happy. Let alone
content with your lot.

just my thoughts and rambling as usual.
