We've been... a... part... so long; We've not been... to...gether, a... lone. Together alone. I hear the lonely house sounds Of dripping, creaking, and window wind whoshes; The semi-muted fiber optic sounds; The various vehicles dopplering past. These I hear in my fractured second, Before asking, "How ye doin?" Which shatters into glass the silence Held too long between us. But now we are alone, together, alone. A silent alone, together.

Sounds Like Being Alone
We've been... a... part... so long; We've not been... to...gether, a... lone. Together alone. I hear the lonely house sounds Of dripping, creaking, and window wind whoshes; The semi-muted fiber optic sounds; The various vehicles dopplering past. These I hear in my fractured second, Before asking, "How ye doin?" Which shatters into glass the silence Held too long between us. But now we are alone, together, alone. A silent alone, together.
