Isn'T Solitude Too Hard To Tolerate
Loners choose their own destiny,
although it foretells exactly
the reason for each cause;
some loners reject awareness
if they become helpless:
will it ease their impudence?
Isn't solitude too hard to tolerate?
Isn't it going to cost them pain?
Doesn't isolation with its gloominess
deprive them of closeness?
Anybody who has come closer
to the realization of desires
will be disappointed by far...
losing another precious chance again!
Isn't solitude too hard to tolerate,
refusing the company of a mate?
How can loneliness help one
find freedom if shadows hide his sun,
that light he needs to illuminate
his path when days become nights and incite
a loner to run towards a brilliant moon?
Loners desperately cling to inclement helplessness,
not recognizing they are trapped by deceit and lies,
but their belief is a constant bluff to themselves
letting time slip their emotions without noticing
how they misjudged someone's precious trust;
and they will regret their decision of having
chosen total freedom over fidelity, never filling
the void from the day they decided to part.
Isn't solitude too hard to tolerate,
not easy to strip from a miserable soul
that lacks compassion or even forgiveness;
and these two are seldom denounced by their hatefulness.
Do their moods clearly indicate
that they have given up both on living and their life's goal?
