Finding Hope In Solitude

Have you ever walked down a lonely sidewalk?
The wind blew at a curious angle, as though gently stroking your hair?
The clouds were bleak, yet beautiful. They were grey, and blue. Lilac and white. 
It was calm. Peaceful. Gently giving you some sort of inspiration.
That you've needed for so long. 
The chill that you felt was not foreboding. It was loving. 
A soothing voice that spoke in your ear. 
All was silent, except for an inkling of hope.
