An Ode To Solitude Poem by THEO RAY

An Ode To Solitude



The sun unraveled its light, the river flowed untamed, a candle lit of a passing day. The way of solitude, the silent of the morn, the sun unraveled its light-endlessly reborn, blood color roses caged by thorns.Sweet solitude, affliction gained, a prayer on the heart is worn, I turn away, scars upon my hands, so little attained. My soul -the locusts sworm over egypt, the night became a poem, dust are we-the falling of the blade-the chalice wept its wine-I am everywhere and nowhere-the doors of perception are open-heavens of gold, in the sky I'm told-let madness take hold, I take to solitude in my humble abode. Much wine to drink-let the world die-let us drink, for soon I'll hide, so let the world die-so let the world die, for soon.....I'll hide.

Oh no, no, no! Not to hide! Come out, come out wherever you are! This poem is full of powerful words. Your descriptions are amazing. There is strength inside of sadness here. In being alone and as one, often gives us clarity to our feelings. We become sure of ourselves and become better writers! :) DC
