I live for myself only.

I stare into space.

I think.  I dream.

Alone does not necessarily

mean lonely.

I have no obligations.

I stare at the clock.

The seconds tick by marking time

but it means nothing to me.

I have nowhere to go.  I am free.

I do as I please.

No one requires of me, no one demands.

I shrug off their kisses, their hands.

Alone does not necessarily

mean damned.
