Solitude

Solitude My solitude is not loneliness I don’t feel isolated My solitary life is where I feel most safe and shaded I revel in the absence of Each draining conversation My mind will benefit the most Of such a situation It will calm down, it will unwind And shake off the heavy load That weighed me down and stressed me out Till I’m back in chill out mode ’Cause only then the magic starts In my imagination I’m everything I long to be No rule or limitation And in my solitary state Is where I grow and thrive I find the wisdom that I need The best way to revive The things that lost their strength and shine The tired mind and soul My solitude serves like a place That heals and makes me whole So in my absence, worry not No need to be alarmed I’m in my favorite retreat Where I never will be harmed.
