Imagine Being Completely Alone In The Universe Poem by Shalom Freedman

IMAGINE BEING COMPLETELY ALONE IN THE UNIVERSE

Imagine being completely alone in the Universe
Would you want to live?

No one to speak with
No one to play with
No one to show off for or to
No one to see oneself through the eyes of
No one to love or be loved by
No one to care for or be kind to
No one to be helped by when one is sick
No one to share the beauty of nature with
No one to cry with
No one to laugh with
No one to love or be loved by

Imagine being completely alone in the universe
And understand
What Hell it would be
And what Madness it would be
And how one would probably want not to be at all

Now think of God-
