If there’s someone you wish to see, then you are no longer alone.
It is a very strange sensation to inexperienced youth to feel itself quite alone in the world, cut adrift from every connection, uncertain whether the port to which it is bound can be reached, and prevented by many impediments from returning to that it has quitted.
No one expects you to get up
All on your own with no one around
Donec eris felix, multos numerabis amicos; tempora si fuerint nubila, solus eris.
I'm not a recluse. I don't close my door to anybody. Thank you. They just don't visit.
I walk a lonely road,
The only one that I have ever known.
Don't know where it goes,
But it's home to me and I walk alone.
Outside his own home, he was lonely and not so very much less than lonely there.
When you're sad, and no-one knows it
I'll send you black roses
When your heart's dark and frozen
I'll send you black Roses
When so many are lonely as seem to be lonely, it would be inexcusably selfish to be lonely alone.
