Friendless Not
–
All alone, but friendless not.
Not alone, myself I’ve got.
In pursuit of self employ.
Doing the things I enjoy.
–
Once was bothered, had no friends.
Tried impress, did backward bends.
Wanted to find a friend best.
None I met, withstood the test.
–
Found people a selfish lot.
To their own ends they will plot.
I, also, consumed with me.
Took long time for this to see.
–
Self no longer try to fight.
Embracing self, I take flight.
Lost need to gather others,
Listening to their druthers.
–
Now I listen to myself.
Take my passions off the shelf.
Made a list of what I’d want.
Now pursue them with gallant.
– – June Nash
This poem was inspired by meandmyrandombrain’s blog entry. They were kind enough to enjoy my poem About Being A Loner.
I thought. . . . being a loner isn’t all that bad. . .if you have, and like, yourself. . . then came up with this poem. I want to thank them for the inspiration.
