The Hermit's Heart Poem by Nosheen Irfan
The Hermit's Heart
He cared not
Of whither we went
Down the even lane
Or up the rocky hill
The way was open
The arms of life spread
In a "welcome" sign
But he closed the door
And shut up inside
Thinking life was a desert
And love a mirage.
Wonderfully worded! The power of choice is here powerfully presented in this powerful poem!
Being a hermit, sometimes, is just a way of shutting down people.. Often, I had wondered how they live with alienation from all society.. Maybe it is a noble choice, maybe it is not.. I had always preferred to be a sinner than a saint... A beautiful poem Nosheen.. Philosophical and thought provoking.
Superb poem..................left me speechlesssssssssssssss.
