They say "I am lonely".
"I am alone, not lonely". I smile and nod in disagreement
"What's the difference?" They smirk.
"When you're lonely, you crave for company while being alone is itself complete. It gives you a sense of solace. Loneliness isn't a choice, aloneness is." I smile some more as I reflect on the profoundness of life.
"You sound crazy". They judge me.
"Crazy yet happy, ever felt that?" Sarcasm works for me at times.
I see them walk away. Not their fault though. They have wore masks all their lives. I wish someday they realise that being normal or crazy doesn't guarantee happiness, being yourself does.
