I’d say no.
“Why?!” They cried
“Isn’t that what you want?” They asked.
No. It’s not.

I would rather be lonely,
Cradled by my own sense of self love,
My arms wrapped around myself
Than to be with someone
With the likes of you.

I’d rather hear
Reality through my mouth
Than the lies
That slithered on your tongue

I’d rather break
And pick myself up
Than to live in the falsehood that
You called your love

I’d rather be full,
by myself
Than to pair this fullness
With an empty man

You see, in the end
This world nurtures loneliness
Is it bad?
I see it as a means to grow
To build a home in myself
No matter how hard at first

I’d rather plunge in a pit
Of crippling loneliness
Than to hold hands that were never there,
Hear words that were never said,
Feel love that was never given,
See him when he was never there.

The bitter truth is better than a sweet lie, after all. I hope you guys enjoyed that piece. I've been sick these past days, and I've felt a bit disconnected from everyone, but I will be back soon. With more energy to interact as much as I can once more. All the love! Salamat! xx
