*i hope you're not alone - and sleep through this weather*
when the snow is falling into impassable mountains
when you could be in a room full of people and still be alone
when thoughts refuse to become words, and ideas refuse to be understood.

wondering if anyone notices me.
wondering if anyone ever thinks of me when I'm not around.
dreaming of people saying they love me because no one ever says it when I'm awake.
knowing I have more friends than I can count, but they're all so far away.
waiting and waiting until I can go home, because there I am never lonely, even when I am alone.

he doesn't seem to want to be around me anymore. And if ever, it's only in roles like this:
me (needs his car) and him (needs my good nature.)
An empty exchange of goods and services. The way one might dream of contentment, sitting alone, eating good food and watching tv.
We used to be fine, and then he decided he'd rather put me back in his pocket.

When you're wide awake and everyone else is sleeping. You find yourself wishing that sleep was a switch you could flick on and off at will. Sometimes even in your dreams you are alone though. Why is it that we are always lonely at the times when we don't want to be alone? Yes I realize it's stupid to ask such a question. Sometimes it feels like we don't matter much because we're the very last 'thing' at the end of the day -pushed back and postponed...fading away.

The house is empty,
I'm the only one home.
The quiet is deafening,
It's a lonely, terrible drone.
So here I sit rhyming
With noboy to talk to
Because my playmate
Is playing with somebody else.
Fuck.

I find when I feel lonely I curl up in bed with Frank Sinatra playing, and a cup of tea. Frank Sinatra makes me feel like I'm more lonely, but really he reminds me that other people are lonely, too, and I'm not alone, and if I'm not alone I'm not lonely

I think you know.

You were lonely, looking for someone to make you happy.
You found the perfect person for you with the same interests, feelings, friends.
You wrecked our group, tore it to bits. Now hanging out is impossible, because there isn't space for everyone (who is left) and the elephant of your relationship.
Now no one is happy but the two of you.
Now I'm angry, while you are happy.
You are forcing me to choose.
You are creating stress.
You might force me to show you how much this hurts me.
Do you really want me to do that?

After my brain surgery, I said good-bye to all my friends. I gave up my job. I gave up my apartment. I went to live with my parents, in a different town, in a different state, far away. I did not know people there.
I stayed with my parents for almost two years.

epitome of incomprehensibility

My brother left this morning for his summer camp job, my parents this afternoon for the cottage (just for a day). If I analyze my feelings right now, I miss the dog the most (he went with the parents).
David wrote and said he can't meet me at the airport on the 23rd. It's in London, he's in Oxford, and he has an online meeting in the morning. Makes sense, but I'm afraid I'll get panicky from being alone and tired (I don't anticipate much sleep on an overnight flight).
Okay, this is silly. Maybe it's best he's not meeting me there - it'd be a bother for him, and I'll probably want to doze off on the bus.
Want to. Can? This stupid anxiety at being alone robs me of sleep.
It's pretty ridiculous because I'm usually surrounded by people who support me, generally speaking. I'm ridiculously lucky, is what I am. Now I need to turn off the computer and go to sleep. I dare myself to sleep well. I fucking dare myself.

Well, that didn't work, no matter how bold my command to myself was. I only slept 3.5 hours.
...Which isn't a huge deal, but in the frustrating non-sleepy hours, I wondered how I would ever face getting on a plane if my parents going away for a single night made me nervous.
But I didn't have panic attacks. Just annoying insomnia. Which, again, I don't usually have, except triggered by heat or poor schedule choices or anxiety. And anxiety is triggered by loneliness for me, as in the basic state of not having people in the same building (I've been lonely when friends haven't talked to me, when David went away, etc., but that's more the normal kind).

Pah: remember previous experience.
I was on a plane in 2018 alone. I've been on two other plane trips, one to Europe (although both times accompanied by people I knew).

My corrections are just making more corrections for themselves. Maybe they were lonely :)
