HAPPILY ALONE

last night i learned from a friend.

i learned to walk without a destination.

i learned how to live with a purpose.

i learned how to give and take.

i learned that some people get it.

i learned that those people are rare.

i learned that you have to be care-full.

i learned the meaning of affinity.

i learned that listening is better.

i learned that we have a chance

to change the world.

i learned what it means to be alone.

and i learned that i'll be happily alone.

for as long as it takes.
