I remember being young and single
Going wherever the wind blew me
Hanging out with friends until 4 am
Falling in together after work
meeting at a restaurant
then moving to bar or club
no deadlines no curfews
no one to answer to, go home to
a free spirit
a kite
surrounded by so many people
laughing drinking
ignited with energy
the music loud
the room smoky
I remember being young and single
surrounded by so many people
(it was lonely)

Great post, I feel the same way
thanks. it’s astounding how lonely you can feel in a crowd.
Yes exactly!
