Solitude

Have u ever felt that u want to just be alone
And just feel and think...keep thinking without anybody saying "why do u look stoned"
Unlike Sumanto i don't have reason to just suddenly sit down and think. However, i have enjoyed that feeling of solitude a lot and this poem was on one of those occasions.

SOLITUDE

Solitude can be a cloak on a cold winter's day
A break from reality in every which way
Sounds you can only see, people you can hear
But in relation to them, you aren't really near
When you're driving in the cold night air
The wind blowing through your hair
Stars sparkling way beyond the road
As you head towards your special abode
Away from the strifes of the world
Forgetting all that might seem to matter
On this peace no stone can be hurled
Being alive is the only thing that really does matter
Solitude of soul is a cold shower on a hot day
Water washes thoughts like the grain through a sieve may
Soulful bliss envelopes your head
And stays with you until you go to bed.
