Solitude
loneliness not extreme
known from what I’ve seen
light within darkness lies
imaginings to my surprise
behind exclusion’s walls of slate
fantasies await partake
travelogues in brevity
roads to wander endlessly
inside transparent walls
exclusion quells, overhauls
intimate benign entwine
no boundaries bind confine
loneliness companion friend
comradeship without end
a wondrous place for peek-a-boo
searching finding, finding me
battle not there is no fight
within the darkness blinding light
illuminates humane invites
flings and fantasy’s flights
