Solitary Comfort Poem by Pondering Portrait

Solitary Comfort



Dimness clouds awareness
Concealing groping eyes
From registering any truth
That’s been smothered by it

What a miserable attempt
To have guilt ridden conscious
And ageless instinct
Be consoled by lies

With pleading desperation
Pursued by a fear
Only to silently surrender
To conjured images

Lost in a dazed trance
And hypnotic rhythm
Can we ever awaken
From the solitary comforts
Of our minds?

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Poetry doesn't have to rhyme... poetry comes from a place in the heart that expresses deep awareness in the poet's mind and soul. Very nicely done and definitely deep. There are no rules in poetry... either it moves you or it doesn't.
