Alone

Alone
Does the word scare you?
Why?
Does it bring to mind,
A feeling of loneliness?

Ah but my friend
These two are not necessarily
Connected or dependent
On each other
Much like pain and suffering

One can occur without the other
And both are in a very true sense
Choices
That we can make for ourselves
So I ask again

Alone
Does the word scare you?
Why?
