The day you realize you are not
the center of your children’s universe.
And you realize you were not
the center of your parents universe.

The moment you realize you are not
your best friend’s, best friend.
And you realize you were not
ever truly anyone’s best friend.

The second you realize you are not
number one in your lovers life.
And you realize you were not
number one in any lover’s life.

The instant you realize you are not
the most important person in your life.
And you realize you have never been
the most important person in your life.

The realization that being alone
is the only true realization of all.
