Poetry for people who could use a little kindness

Alone Doesn’t Have to Be Lonely

After a day filled with people
some bad, some lovely
it’s nice to get some time
to only worry about me

Time when I can recharge
and tend to my needs
to let my body relax
and my mind be free

It’s not that I don’t like people
quite the opposite, in fact
But I need a moment to recover
Before I can bounce back

So I’ll relax and think of loved ones
Because I miss you all, you see
But I need alone time, so I’ll remember
that alone doesn’t have to be lonely
