It's Not You Comments

I am pleased that I decided to read your poem. It is giving me much to think about and reminds me of this bit of dialogue from Guy de Maupassant's short story called Solitude: Whatever we may do or attempt, despite the embrace and transports of love, the hunger of the lips, we are always alone. I have dragged you out into the night in the vain hope of a moment's escape from the horrible solitude which overpowers me. But what is the use! I speak and you answer me, and still each of us is alone; side by side but alone.' Nice Write.
