Today I met a new friend.
Loneliness.
I've been running away from him
not realizing that the harder i try
to shake him off, the stronger his grip;
the faster i try to run,
he's always one step ahead of me.
Well, today i sat down and faced this "foe" of mine.
This unshakable and persistent phenomenom.
He's not so bad.
I'm at peace in his presence.
This new friendship is a gift in disguise.
At this realization, i want to cultivate and build this friendship
into one that will help me grow.
I don't have to run anymore.
I'm glad. I was tired anyway.
I hated the person i was turning into,
simply because i was afraid of Loneliness.
He's always been there.
He's here right now.
Not permanently, but just for a short visit.
He's getting ready to leave.
My soul is at rest because next time he comes,
I won't try to chase him away, or run, not realizing that he's waiting
for me wherever my feet fail to keep going.
He knows he's welcome whenever he chooses to come see me
