To explain loneliness and aloneness, look closely at how the words are broken down and “one” as the only word formed (well after “a” - which signifies singularity) and the fact that it is the first (I /”one”/) poem, and you can also assume “I” as referring to only yourself. it also looks like a tree trunk minus the branches for the “a leaf falls” part. That’s how this poem appeals to me
