Dear Solitude, I Love You

Is it loneliness

Or bliss?

To connect within,

Thriving through the mess.

 

Winds of peace

Carried my soul,

To the green land

Extending their invisible hand,

To let go the cloak of mettle.

There I stand pure,

My burden to prove cease.

 

When all at once

I could hear,

Chirping of birds,

Dropping of pins,

A fearless heart,

Saying don't I care,

Being or not a dunce.

 

Content, I lay,

Smiling all the way,

Thanking for my role,

In the Creator's play.

 

Never had I known

I could glide,

Only aware I was,

Of a free-fall slide.

Letting go was a distant dream,

Solitude taught me

To hear my own scream.

 

Letting my mind 

Drift to what they say,

There's sure a hell on the way.

Letting others scribble my dream,

Is a pointless meme, 

Unless I can live it

Sealed and blind.
