Let Solitude Be His Home (For A Nephew Upon A Broken Marriage) Poem by RIC BASTASA

Let Solitude Be His Home (For A Nephew Upon A Broken Marriage)



how can words be soothing
to pains still existing?


how can hushes become
lullabies
to excruciating
goodbyes?

leave that man alone with his palm
let his solitude be his own balm

let it be the rock
to rest
his soul upon a hammock

let it be the softest grass
to his wounded past

let it be his home again
to his journey in the rain
