In Solitude!


In Solitude 

One can be surrounded by a crowd
A room full of humanity 
But this feeling, of emptiness, surround me
You can touch the loneliness like a mist in front of you 
This gossamer before your eyes impeding you 
from seeing this life before me 
As I see you in the depths of my mind 
Swimming against the tide to reach you 
Lulled by the sway taking me further away from you    
Fighting against the tide trying getting to you 
To gaze into your eyes!
To see the light in your eyes the very core of you 
For am, as empty as can be, I can feel not you!
In my mind my heart struggling to be in the nearness of you  
Bursting from my chest my heart at the glimpse of you
I try I try to feel not, this feeling that I have within me 
Help can not, for my mind listens not to my heart
& my heart listened not to my mind 
Grow up I must I know! 
I'd so love to touch his mind with mine
Feel his skin against mine 
Kiss his lips his eyes feel that, connection between us
As I look into his eyes grounding me, that je ne sais quoi, feeling!
Impossible!
The impossibility that he & me! 
Turmoil within me, my heart cries out infamy!! 
For in the very depths of me I see the possibility 
Of the world, devoid from me, deserting me...
Me on my own with me
In solitude must I be!!
