you are simply lonely -

were there, but the other is not.
Loneliness is absence of the other.

Aloneness is very positive.
It is a presence, overflowing presence.
You are so full of presence
that you can fill the whole universe
with your presence and there is no need for anybody.

- Percy Bysshe Shelley

"Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!"
