Hey dude,

don’t disturb my solitude.

Just like food,

I need my Solitude.

*

When I’m in the mood,

I’ve got to dream

in my solitude.

*

It’s not an attitude.

It’s just that I need

my Solitude.

*

I need my time alone.

I need to grow.

I need to stretch.

Yes I need

my solitude.

*

I’m not ignoring you.

I’m not being rude.

It’s just my time

for Solitude.

*

I like being good

to myself at times

and unwind

in my solitude.

*

So do me a favour

And contribute.

Leave me alone

So that I can enjoy

my friend, Solitude.

*

Solitude

Gives me fortitude

And so I must show

My gratitude

For my friend, Solitude.

*

If I don’t answer,

if I don’t call,

it’s not an attitude.

Today I’m in the mood

To be with

my friend, Solitude.
