Solitude MAG
Rainwashed days
of faded grays,
and tattered dreams
Streets littered with broken
glass, a windswept world
of passing scenery
Shadows of darkness and
patterns of blurred colors
This is not Solitude
Solitude is a gliding bird
high above the world
The fragment of an image
of a pale flower
A cat on a rooftop watching
the coming of dawn
The shade of a mountain
or a cool sip of fresh water
To be alone with yourself
No social masks put on
to hide from others
Solitude is standing
by a clear, crystal fountain
For to be alone is not
to be lonely
