SPU Poetry Contest #5: Loneliness

julietisrael (70)in #poetsunited • 6 years ago

Do you feel the same way?
Do you know my fate?
Can you tell what's my day?
Do you know if I'm late.

I've talked my self to reason
Yet I don't seem to listen
I know I sound so crazy
And that's why I'm lazy

I heard the voices, can you hear them too?
Yes! The silence is so loud
Can you hear the screams of fools
Yes! Its tells they are proud.

I'm left to my own thoughts
I feel swept off my feet
By the ideas idleness brought
Oh! There's gnashing of teeth!

I grew lonely, I needed solace
I felt dismayed and so I wandered
Into the quiet of a tree, I got comfort
Which became a better partner
For my young and articulate soul
