Liberated Solitude

If you think I'm selfish then I don't care,
In solitude's embrace, I choose to wear.
Far from pretense, far from toxic games at bay,
Alone, I find strength and serenity today.

In silence, my authenticity unfurls,
No need for masks or deceptive swirls.
I'd rather be alone than be with deceitful one
In solitude, my heart finds its beat and it's genuine.

A lone nocturne, where the truth resides,
No compromise with deceitful tides.
Beneath the moon, I stand my ground,
In solitude my authenticity is found.
