Saturated In Solitude

Alone,
silence, so stark,
me, lost in the unknown
and blind in my thoughts, yet, I own
the dark.

The dark,
like arms, embrace
me and leave their bleak marque,
forlorn in my world in this stark
sad place.

FJ Thomas Date: 4/12/2018 8:04:00 PM Man James your describing of solitude is amazing! Login to Reply FJ Thomas Date: 4/13/2018 8:42:00 AM Thank you James :) They are tucked away. Only two or three of the ones posted now have been posted before; I'll probably just leave the others tucked away. I was glad to see you were still here James. Very glad James Inman Date: 4/12/2018 9:02:00 PM Thank you. Haven't seen you around lately, although I did recognize a couple of the poems you wrote under your pseudonym, when I visited your sight. I knew you left and I'm glad you've returned, I'm sure many are. It's a shame all of those years of poetry are gone, at least gone for us. I hope you have them squirreled away somewhere. Love your Hibiscus and welcome back. Thank you again for your wonderful comment. Looking forward to reading more of your new poems.
