“Being Alone”

“Lonesome Dove” ©️C.P. Hickey 2019

“Being Alone”

Being Alone,

Not half as bad,

As being alone while with someone else.

There is no together in that.

Just inordinate pressure.

Diamond pressure.

I wonder if people suffer together,

Not knowing of peace,

For fear of looking down loneliness lonesome alone.

Tandem time travelers suspended in gravity.

Until old stars go supernova.

What a cold show.

What a cold show.
