why do i embrace solitude
so much
why is it i crave to be alone
why is friendship a hassle
and partners annoying
why does family aggravate me
and children make me scowl
is this a sad existence
for one person
   for me
was i born to be one
a soul survivor
alone
but not lonely
by myself
but enjoying the company
or is it selfish of me
for not wanting to try
and accomodate
