One is the lonliest number.
Is it really?
Does one always have to be alone and lonely?
Can one not be alone and loaded?
Alone and content,
Alone and fulfilled?
Which brings me to why i'm questioning that one must necessarily be equivalent to lonliness.
I resent the hegemonic ideal of a dyad.
I wish to avoid the mad rush to cease being one.
I dread the loss of my individuality.
I hate having to think for two, or three, or more.
I want to relish the me, myself, mine.
Selfish? Perhaps rightfully so.
I have done the twosome thing.
And I have given my heart and soul to someone.
I am no stranger to selfless follies.
And I am not unfamiliar with lonliness.
But if you've ever felt, like I have, that you were lost in an abyss of lonliness whilst proclaiming to be in love,
Perhaps then you could understand why one isn't always the lonliest number.
