Alone, by Edgar Allan Poe |
|
Poe reminds us that loneliness is more than just being alone.
Loneliness is when no one can see what we see or feel what we feel. Loneliness is having a childhood pain that no one else can ever understand. Loneliness can blind us to the beauty of life. Loneliness makes us look for storms when the sky is blue. Loneliness makes the amorphous clouds of a blue sky seem like demons. |
