OF SOLITUDE

Realities of life we all must face
down from Adam to Eve
to the end of human race.
if you must want anyone
to share your grief
the association will be brief

so let the world praise you
for in solitude you find a sigh
I can't say why

the sadness that prevails today
will one day go away
loneliness in utter pain
must be borne
without becoming insane

let solitude be your innate partner
who knows what will happen next
will you leave the rest or become bereft
