I can not stand alone.

I can not be myself by myself.

 

In order to know myself,

I need to be surrounded by something other than myself.

 

I can not see myself by myself

By myself, I do not know where I am.

 

By myself, I do not know where I end

Or where I begin

 

By myself, my absolutes become relative,

Relative to nothing.

 

By myself, I have no purpose.

I can find no meaning in anything, if nothing is with me.

 

Without parameters, I have no definition.

Without definition, there is no boundary between myself and not myself.

 

Emptiness is my poverty.

Loneliness is my confusion.

 

I can not be myself, by myself

I can not be, by myself

 

If I choose to be at all, then I can not be by myself.
