I am just going to sit here
in the quiet
because I like it.
I do not mind
alone sometimes,
so long as it's alone
on my terms.
I do not want to be known
and special
to the world entire,
just to a few
who love me well.
So I will sit here
in the quiet
and watch the world
pass me thoughtless by
in search of glory
because I like it.
