Color of loneliness

sometimes you are lonely even with someone. and, it seems, there is a person nearby, but he is present in your life simply as a physical body, as a function. You are poking around in your head, looking for the reason, blaming yourself and him. at the same time, you are judged by those who have no one nearby: “you’re freaking out”

but sometimes something suits you that doesn’t suit others

Solitude can be chosen consciously. As a way to find your inner resource, as rest, as a conversation with yourself. Then its color changes, complemented by bright hues, becoming warm and cozy. Immersing yourself in music, resting, reading, delving into your own world… all of this is solitude, but different now. It’s where you talk to yourself, and enjoy.
