City of Loneliness - Part II

'For the trotter'

 

City of Loneliness

 

Part II

 

“‘Tis the part of life” they say,

Though I disagree

Solitude in the fullest rhyme

 

What does that mean?

 

I do not get an answer

Nor do I question them back.

 

Back home and on-job I realize

The captive power of

 

Trust to me

Dependence to me

 

Loses in me

Power in me

 

Cries for me

Smiles for me

 

Energy to me

Loneliness to me

 

What more can I preach!

What less can I limit!

 

I am relishing my solitary sojourn

Like an undiscovered satellite.

Lovely! Great expression in so few words. I am glad you can find some serenity in solitude. Well expressed. One suggestion, for reading purposes in the last stanza I would add 'an' in front of undiscovered satellite. Would read better. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself in this write.
Blessings,
Siddartha

very enjoyable - both parts are fantastic

[April Child]

Part II here is a very different piece from Part I, I felt empowerment reading your words. It just shows how much everything is about perspective. I like how the 2 parts of this poem show these different reflections. Well done.

Your city now explodes with noice and movement! You are captured by the essence of being alone and embracing the moment!!!
