On your own, until you go blind.

You are on your own. I’m on my own. He, she everyone… On their own.

You are in the middle of crowd, on your own.

So True! I have had this feeling all the time. No one will help you if you don’t help yourself. Not even god (for those who believe in one). You have to make it happen. All alone & on your own.

Even when you are with your friend, YOU are alone with your friend. Even when both of you are having orgasm, YOU are having fun because YOU like it. HE/she is having fun because HE/she likes it. You & HE/she - both of you are all alone, on your own.

All the time… you have to do your own thinking, independently. No one can think for you. As the TV advt goes: Its your (own) life, (you’ve to yourself) make it large! You & only you have to figure out how to make some sense out of it. And actually you probably do make some sense out of it for the reason that you can SEE: ‘you are on your own’.

And then, when the skies appear to be brighter than yesterday, comes a moment. A moment when you want to forget the reality and think that you can rely on someone, you can ‘entirely’ depend on someone. The feeling says, ‘Don’t show me something true, I believe in you!!’… That moment is love. No wonder they say love is blind! Can't see & you don't want to.

And unlike the times before, when it is all gone, when cerebral hormones are all back to the normal composition. Then life comes alive & the past moves aside. To make yourself realize the reality - you are on your own. No regrets & no remorse. And now... again you can see!
