Drowning In Solitude

DROWNING  IN   SOLITUDE



Wishing my way home.  Cold wind, soul-drenching. 
Time’s tick slows as we near overhead track,  
Drowning in solid dark. Turn collar back - 
Grimy solitude breathing in the  grey. 

Worse than the wait, her bus arrives too late :  
I’ve often plumbed the black waves of weakness ;    
But now  I float, an empty sack of strength.
