Human loneliness is actually God's loneliness.


I am like an addict
In my longing for a sublime state,

For that ground of Conscious Nothing
Where the Rose ever
Blooms 

. . . Now that the heart has held
That which can never be touched
My subsistence is a blessed 
Desolation

And from that I cry for more loneliness.
 
I am lonely.
I am so lonely, dear Beloved,
For the quintessence of
Loneliness,

For what is more alone than God?
