Solitude Poem by Mycho Jamil

As I look up to the dimly-lit sky,
I suddenly feel dreadful as I see it cry
Standing still, I let myself drenched
Closing my eyes, my fists clenched

The deafening sound of silence,
Caused by my consequence
Now here I stand, ostracized
As people around me criticized

The reason is this overcoming anxiety
Of why I am an outcast of the society
I've lived alone long enough
Even if things are very tough

Trying to reach out to someone
Made me think that I'm no one
Reality is that in this world, I'm all alone
What's next to me is just my phone

This isn't what everyone calls peace
Trying to fit in is what I must cease
Appreciating this silence is what matters
My thoughts kept in, now all of it scatters

And this peace is bliss
This is Silence's kiss
Throw away our insecurities
And cleanse our impurities

Being happy if I have nothing is what I choose
For I know that I have nothing to lose
Letting myself drench in desolation
Is a peaceful kind of isolation

Now, as I look up to the brightly-lit sky
I suddenly feel like I want to fly
Lying down, I calmly breathe
As I neglect my worries underneath
