Is it wrong to enjoy being alone,
Is it socially unacceptable,
To want sometimes just to be on my own,
Not need to be surrounded by people?
It's not that I'm anti-social as such,
I'm quite at ease with my own company.
I do not crave company very much
As being alone does not bother me.
I worry for those who fear solitude,
Who feel that alone they would not survive;
For those who seem to have the attitude
That they need others in order to thrive.
It is those when alone who are at ease
Any company will far better please.
