The Essence of Solitude

wrote some time back....drowned in memories....

I recall the fragrance of mom’s lap,

When I used to peek out of it,

And looked at the shinny sky.

When I used to play in evening,

When I used to hide in dark,

When I used to scare somebody in the night.

When I used to enjoy under the sky.

And when I concealed myself in the dark,

And tears would flow down the cheeks,

Until I disclosed the pain,

Confined inside the seal of my heart.

Staring at the black sky,

The essence of past covers me.

And I recall all those days,

I spent staring at the understanding sky.

Gazing at the black sky,

Decorated with jewels and pearls,

I recollect those nights of tears,

And smiles I spent indemnified by the heavens.

Ask the sky- it saw me,

In autumns and springs,

Ask my friend about me,

And it will count the days of solitude I spend.

Hi Author,
I have read your poem, and I really liked it. You have defined each character very well, and you have kept your work in such a way that it stands out. You could become an even better writer by continuing in this direction. It would be an honor for me if I could work with you as well. I am a commission artist, and I have worked on a lot of character art and book covers. If you think it's a good fit, I would love to create something for you as well.

"I spent staring at the understanding sky.

Solitude can be a prison and a safe heaven. I like the emotion in this poem. You took me on a peaceful journey in your words. I like hoe you ended the poem. A excellent poem. Thank you.
