Solitude Poem by John kago
Solitude
On dark days such as this
I stand on the edge of my cliff
look down on the world as
humanity hustles and justles
see the laughter in their eyes
see the weariness in their hearts
still they move on, press on
someplace to be, something to do
I stand still, only I
no friend, no foe
only a beating heart, and a dreamer's mind
this single grain of sand, stuck
inside this giant hourglass of solitude
for what I hope is for greater good

A tiny as that grain of sand....the way we sometimes feel against the backdrop of the looming world, whisking by. To be alone, not a terrible thing...To be lonely, nothing quite as awful. Your scribe was a beautiful reminder of how solitude can sometimes feel. I wish you peaceful moments, carved out if the solitude of your soul.
