Alone
Sometimes
I stare foolishly
into
the deep blue sky,
carrying
dead thoughts tenderly,
as
if they were still alive.
The
night is no longer young,
the
stars are diminishing ...
The
songs that were sung
are
now finishing ...
No
life in the surroundings,
as
the sun is dying,
leaving
me in darkness ...
Fear,
confusion, sadness ...
My
feelings like a stranded man
floating
on the big blue ocean,
being
whipped up constantly
by
violent sea waves.
As
I rode on the comet,
I
realised ...
My
mind was inert,
hearing
only your goodbyes.
Like
an innocent child floating
across
the infinite universe, across the river Nile,
across
the tragic kingdom of dead loners,
across
the fires of hell.
I
was lost without your guidance,
dead
without your love,
weak
without your presence,
sad
without your mirth ...
And
as I look back
through
the blazing trail,
I
realise, from my closing eyes,
I
was alone,
all
alone ...

"It
feels me with peace, tranquility, freedom and gives me joy. It is called
loneliness"
