he lives by the sea
he lives by himself
he lives alone
but he was not lonely

no one talks to him
and he talks to no one
people think he is insane
but he just enjoys solitude

he has no use for words
he does not converse
he has no use for people
himself is all he needs

he sees no one
but he sees himself
he hears no one
but he hears himself
he speaks to no one
but he speaks to himself

indeed he needs no one
there is only one thing he desires
and that is solitude
