Alone In Solitude Poem by Pauline Levesque

Internal solitude consumes my soul,
Forever searching for peace, love and forgiveness,
Continual battle has depressed me and is taking its toll,
My love can’t tolerate me, I am to consumed by my past
By my wounds, by my unhappiness.

My soul aches to be free of its confines,
To many restrictions I have placed on my heart
From fear and doubt…. And the darkness that binds,
The taste on my tongue is tart.

To fly free over the waters of tranquility and love
Is my ever impassioned wish.
Closing my eyes I see the light above,
And dream of my world with less pain and anguish.
