Loneliness of one

What would it be like to be the last,
to have none to follow,
to be the only one?
To look around and find none
like me, the mirror
my only companion.
Yearning for
the camaraderie of
another to understand
what it is to be my species,
seeing the world as I do.
No fellowship, no association
for the last, for the only.
I suppose before extinction
there is the loneliness of one.

Like this one Raskin

yes I suppose it must be strange to be the very last one before extinction frightening I should think and to have nobody left to chat to about anything a very lonely life I think it would drive one mad in the end , good different subject Raskin and a fascinating read from Willow

yes

It is interesting to think of complete and utter loneliness and I think the last of a species would be the farthest extreme of lonely. So it leads me to think my day isn't so bad. raskin
