Alone Again... Naturally ...

Being lonely being alone
that's kinda new for me
Funny for someone who enjoys solitude...
but usually in the proximity of the next human being


So when finally got thrown into a foreign situation
in a foreign land
sitting in a foreign bed..
soaking in the quietness that solitude brings...


The lack of the sound of the breathing of another human being
while when present... might seem negligible
But when absent... leaves a huge awning void
in which static sounds flows into


I suddenly feel lonely...


But loneliness is something I have to get use to right?
Not because I want to ..
But because we all have to be alone at some point in our lives
whether we like it or not..


So while walking down dark streets,
While walking along the dark hotel corridors,
While walking into a dark hotel room,
I half expect to be part of some horror movie..
amazingly embarrassing I must say...
to have braved the jungle nights alone
but to fear the dark in a city full of lights
....


However, KL is not without its charms
the night air brings romance to mind
But in my mind was where it stayed
the inviting chi-chi bars
the twinkling nightscape
seen in its full glory from my hotel room
with the KL twin towers raising up magnificently
~glowing efferverscent cosmopolitan


As I sink into my bath tub full of bubbles
with a hot cuppa tea
and my Terry Pratchett
I think I can start enjoying such a solitude
But then..
where are my wine, chocolates and strawberries?
and definitely ..
where is the hot dude to soap my back..


Fresh from the bath ..
with more tea ( yes very British,I know ;p )
watching "Buttons" on MTV
as I snuggled up into the soft white sheets
that engulfed me in its satin coolness
I wonder again..
where are my wine, chocolates and strawberries?
and the hot sex that comes with it...


The setting was perrrfect
But alas the company was lacking somewhat
I guess there's always my mango shopping bags
to hug to sleep at night... ;p
LOL
