A Whiff of Loneliness
O clouds of loneliness,
I beckon you to pervade
within the seams of my heart
and rain ever so lightly
to cleanse its walls
of the dust
that tumult of life incessant
has fixed on its walls,
to let me breathe
and discover the self true
that resides in me.
O Clouds, be only a visitor
and do not make me your home
as deeper you glide in
heavier is your assault,
tearing away from me
even the last straw of my self
in the torrent of gloom
that you might unwind.
