I'm Never Alone

 I’M NEVER ALONE

 

I’m never alone,

I’m always with myself.

My constant companion,

Like bookends on a shelf.

 

I don’t mind being by myself.

I’m pretty good company.

I can carry on a conversation,

Even though it’s just with me.

 

I can go through the day,

Just me, myself, and I.

We all know each other,

Because we’re all the same guy.

 

I could be in solitary,

Denied the use of a phone,

But I’d still be with me,

I never leave myself alone.

It's not the questions you ask yourself..it's the answers that confuse ....love your words...

Creative and thoughtful as well as rhyming.

I have been watching a lot of survival shows. Some people seem to be quite comfortable being in nature alone (I believe that I am that way). But, I am continually surprised at the number of "tough" outdoor types and/or "experienced" survivalist types who find it very difficult to be alone for even a few days, and when given the opportunity to quit, will tap out.

I think that is the reason why solitary confinement is probably torture.

Do you carry on conversations with yourself? I certainly do. Do they sometimes turn into arguments? Be careful you don't turn black and blue.

There are times that I really enjoy being alone. Seems like I can get a lot more accomplished. On the other hand, I'm always glad to see my wife come home after she's been shopping or whatever she takes the notion to do. Good job, as usual, Michael.

This is very good;
You and yourself, makes great company,
Since there won't be any disagreement.
You are doing very well, Michael!
