An increasing number of teens often feel isolated every single day. This feeling is triggered by many factors that are experienced in the teenage years and has a variety of negative impacts associated with it.

Isolation is the absence of other people around someone.

Images of isolation expressing the conflict of male agency and the confinement of female identity is apparent within the poem through the device of narrative point of view. Specifically, the text is in a second person “you” perspective and because of this, the speaker describes their surrounding space rather than their own aesthetic features. In this way, they distance their physical form’s qualities away from the central focus of the reader’s visualizations of the scene, and so, isolate their identity as a result (OED). This fosters an underlying male dominance, in that, the reader’s focus transfers from the presumably female speaker to the male cop since the description of his blue eyes and expressions gives him definitive aspects to imagine

Everyone needs some alone time, some privacy, a sanctuary away from the busy and hectic happenings of everyday life. However, actually being completely alone, without any noise, sounds, sights, or sense of touch is deleterious to our rather sensitive minds.

Instead of becoming dependent on another individual, living by yourself allows you to further grow as an individual and reach your full potential.

Solitude allows me to see the value of myself in God’s image. I sat in solitude wondering how I could forget God’s unconditional love for me and my worth that is found in Him. Solitude challenged my relationship with my husband because I often said no to my husband, which caused him to be upset with me and eventually made me feel like a bad person. I said no because I want to experience Solitude. Even if I faced certain challenges while practicing Solitude, I found it was more rewarding than anything spiritual practice. After every hour of Solitude, I felt more refreshed and I could feel the love around me. I became more aware of when I was overwhelmed or needed to take a break from events, socializing, or people. I learned about my limits, and what I can do to improve how much time I can spend in situations that are exhausting or do not reflect God. The most rewarding part of solitude was I always came out of it knowing my worth and that I was created to be here and I had a purpose. I could see who I truly was and how I can live that out, which is something I often struggle with.
