Alone in my Cocoon…
Alone I sit, in my cocoon of life,
To avoid, to hide from the strife,
No one to talk to, no one to listen,
Except Rufuz; he says little,
But understands much more than credit given…
No one to bounce off ideas,
No one to tell me I suck or not,
No one to be abusive to me,
No one to remind me I need a shower,
No one to tell me they love me,
No one to show me his or her power…
Alone for me is to give me rise to write,
I write so much better when alone I be,
So as stated above, here I sit alone,
In my strife to write about life & my little home,
Where we live for now, till someday we can, again, roam…

and I cannot write or paint if anyone is in the room...
I must lock the door and be alone...I always wondered
if that was wierd....but.....there are many times that
I truly need the company of another person or persons..
so I guess being in a cocoon for creative reasons and
just thinking or reading is great...but you have got to
come out once in awhile and I am sure Rufuz takes care of
that part...LOL...floria
