Freedom in Solitude
It all began with a simple question: “Was this the life I wanted for myself?”
A whisper in the dark:
“Is this the life I want?”
A question that nestled into my heart,
Turning over in my mind like a restless stone.
Through the years, I’ve worn many hats,
Each one a different phase of love’s complex tapestry.
I’ve known the depths of partnership,
And I’ve embraced the solitude of being single.
The shift between these two states
Has been more than just a change in relationship status.
It’s been a journey through self-discovery,
A rollercoaster of emotions and revelations.
In the quiet of reflection,
I sit down and trace the contours of my life.
From the high peaks of a long-term bond,
To the valleys of solitary existence.
Each chapter has been a unique experience,
An evolution of understanding and growth.
I look back at the rollercoaster ride,
And I wouldn’t trade a single moment.
