Am I lonely?

Let me ponder that thought.

I am alone a lot of the time.

I have good friends at the end of a text

And my son lives at the end of my path.

But 90% of the minute full day

I spend with me, myself and I.

Sometimes I crave a companion of sorts –

I did try a cat for a while.

But I surprisingly found that I am selfishly tight;

That I devour time to be on my own.

So when the question arises

As it quite often does

I can honestly say that I’m not.

I am rich in my company

As I have no buts to share

I can come and go as I please.

So no pitying looks please

And offers of seats

As I’m happy as happy can be.
