Alone...

Just some thought penned after I saw a post on loneliness...

The crowd swells, the world goes by...
yet the man is alone, all alone!

The party rocks, and the chicks are hot...
yet the party animal is alone, all alone!

He goes for a helping, perches on the table...
the conversation rocks, but he is alone, 'n the thoughts are his own!

The newsroom's buzzing, the master's quizzing...
the countdown begins, and now the reader's alone!

The mindless chaos, flowing humanity...
never a moment's rest, never a little pause...
yet man is alone, alone on his own...

Strange thing this thing called man...
seeks voice when needs he no noise...
seeks humanity when needs he just solitude...
