Exclusive Solitude

Lily_

You meet me in a spiral,
When my life was on idle,
But I didn't care.

I breakdown in low light,
A happiness hindsight,
But I wont let you be there.

Instead, I sink into the water
and I drift out farther,
away from my home.

I wade under the night sky
Making my own light
While I try to make my peace with fear

 

So, darling be patient
It just takes me some time
To find the words inside

 

but until then I'll teach myself to swim
and live in my head
I'll be just fine.

Sometimes it wears me out
because I sink like stone
Under the weight of all these thoughts of mine

But I wish you well
Because you can't save someone too far to find


So if I never reach the land
Or learn to love again
Darling, I'll be just fine.

    awesome!
    such a joy to read

    in Poetry's intuitive empathy of relatability..
    thank you for sharing, dear poet
