Relatable Poetry

That feeling.

I crave that that feeling again,

The loneliness was actually the time I felt most alive,

Not having to answer to anybody, not having to be in a shallow world where you have to strive to be accepted and be like everyone else,

Not having to answer to get up early and do things you don't want to do,

You can really learn to appreciate life a whole lot more when you're that isolated.

I don't even know if the word "alone" is the best word to use,

I was at one with myself,

I was away from arguments and negativity,

I sunk into a world of spirituality and self-love,

Everything else just became noise from a far distance.

I could finally talk to myself, hear myself out loud for once,

I never realised I had so many thoughts on so many different things,

So many questions I was dying to find the answer to,

I wanted to explore more and more,

Take me back.

Take me back to that place,

Take me back to that big empty room,

You see it's not where you are,

It's about what you make of it.

Do you ever get this feeling?

Where's your place?
