a moment alone
~
a moment alone
this fleeting affair
of solitude sighs
unlikely to share
some daydream beliefs
with wildflower dreams
and fingers entwined
midst dark silent screams
where shadows elope
and coral vine weaves
a soft comfy couch,
in three-quarter sleeves
for stress to escape
so pain can subside
away from the noise
a dark place to hide
so tensions can heal
and nervousness split
while clenching a fist
or throwing a fit
as cloudy days sing
and raindrops appear
you're still all alone
there's nobody here
to know if you're well
or frowns stay a while
if teardrops now fall
inside of your smile
if fears hold on tight
and anguish remains
among every loss
and all of the gains
An hour or two
a minute or three
to be by yourself
and set yourself free
the silence a joy
a world to postpone
this fleeting affair
a moment alone
~
Anyone else need one from time to time?
