Being Alone
BEING ALONE
Once I was walking alone in the rain,
Carrying my umbrella and a sweet pain,
I was completely lost in the clouds of my thoughts,
Remembering my points of success and all my flaws.
Suddenly I saw a girl getting wet in the rains,
Her clothes were entirely filled with mudstains,
She was like a bird but of a different feather,
And we traced a long way walking together.
The rain stopped and I removed my umbrella,
Surprisingly I again found myself alone with no cinderella,
I smiled and became sure that it was my delusion,
My own loneliness has served me this illusion.
I stopped for a while and took a look at the nature,
Observing every flower and every creature,
A single solitary flower is as beautiful alone,
A meadow full is pleasurable but each grows on its own.
I was happy because now I was not depressed,
Now my opinions cannot be suppressed,
My feelings are able to be expressed,
And finally after being alone also I felt I was blessed,
After being alone also I felt I was blessed………
