Alone

What does it mean to be alone?

Is it when you wake up and find yourself alone in a house you pretend to live in?
Is it when you drive to work and get their 40 minutes earlier than expected because there is no one on the roads?
Is it when you arrive at your first day of work for the year like its an ordinary day with no greeting or understanding?
Is it when you leave work alone without saying goodbye?
Is it when you look at the mirror and see one person looking back?
Is it when you visit your parents house and find no one there but the lonely plants that need watering?
Is it when you shop for groceries, by yourself, noticing all the couples sharing their time together deciding what to eat for the week?
Is it when the ATM wont accept your debit card?
Is it when you eat a tub of custard before you put the groceries away and no one is there to berate your bad behaviour?
Is it when you make macaroni and cheese for dinner, but can never manage to make a single serve, so you end up with two portions?
Is it when you watch a romantic comedy about the little guy who gets the girl and everything is peaches and cream for desert?

Or is it when being nice wont cut it, being fair cant take it, and being supportive means you come last?
