Free verse: bad and good loneliness

Leisurely Loneliness

by Badger_29


"Loneliness adds beauty to life. It puts a special burn on sunsets and makes night air smell better" Henry Rollins

I am lonely
    but solitude is only
       one way of existing;
           as I am persisting

Feel the painful
   of the gainful,
       both I am enlisting
           I am often resisting

I am free
  to completely be
     a dichotomy
        of this comagedy 

Because every day
    has its own way
        of drama,
both kinds
  With this in mind, 

Tragic circumstances;
  interaction
     can be satisfaction:
       if you are not the one,
who is
 not having fun

A comedic play
   sets the stage
     for a day of
        light-hearted fun
             and sorrow is undone

So if you are lonely,
   embrace it and live
      If you are with another,
         embrace them, and give

Live each day
  like a treasure,
and measure
           the smilestones 
with memories,
               sweet and sorrow

Plant the seed
of tomorrow,
laugh out loud, 
then cry in sorrow

~thereby  fully enjoying~

  the whole wild,
wide spectrum
of this:

        Human Comagedy!

Comagedy: a word that I coined, a combination of comedy and tragedy,
when I wrote the poem
Solo Bailar! (Just Dance)

Blessings,
