Lonely

“Love is the one size that fits all ~ Feel it within, as a bliss squall” ~ quote by poet Stooped stance, plunged into deep despair Searching for souls with whom to pair Our heart contracts, we feel not whole Angst and anguish too deep to bear Even as dark fear forms patrol We search for joy scriptures extol Oh, to feel vibrant whilst alone Bliss in permanence, our life’s goal That we may come into our own Thoughts we nurture, we need to hone Notice head and heart stand apart Sins of past we need to atone On choosing to add love to cart Living in the now, fears depart No longer despondent and terse Each breath we take, marks a fresh start As joyous presence sings love’s verse Our muse has no need to rehearse We are as we are, bliss replete Connected with the universe 15-March-2023 ____________ Writing Challenge - 'L' Words - Poetry Contest Sponsor: Constance La France HMS, Rhymezone, PS Grammar
