It envelops me
Sometimes
I just want to be alone
Not always
Just moments
A moment alone
A moment when I am not exhausted and unable to think
A moment for just me and silence, a friend I rarely see anymore.
A moment for my thoughts to creep out
from dusty corners of my mind and stretch.
Just a moment
A moment to breathe
A moment when my name is not being called
A moment austerity has passed, a sigh of relief finally escapes
A moment to address the restless fears
I have held at bay far too long
Sometimes
I just want to be alone
and release the hindering restraint that is
my life.
