The Solitude....


The impish grin!!!
A hellish union
Conspiracy on the roll 
Dreams crumble
Sanity on toll 

The stinky cage
Dungeons of desolation, He fears
Try not to flee
The shushed whisper, He hears

Loser, Loner
The words ring
The escapade
A wishful thing

The Armageddon
The trumpet blows
Life infused
A radiant glow

Cage walls crack
Shushed warns fade
The dawn's refulgent beam
Orange and red

The freedom
He devours
The triumph
He basks
Speaks to self
All thoughts merged
The blissful splashes of solitude
The soil of loneliness purged!!!

  1. Dungeons of desolation - This sends a chill down my spine, a real sense of lost and redemption. Love the way it comes alive and holds no punches.

  2. That last stanza is powerful. I like the implied thought that loneliness (which is a negative) can change to solitude (which is a positive.) A thoughtful poem.

    (And thanks for visiting Poetry Jam! Hope to see you again....and also hope you enjoy the poetry of others here.)

  5. Solitude is very powerful. I can related to this since yesterday itself after India blasted South Africa in Cricket, AB De Villiers mentioned he needs to be alone to think over what happened...and i am sure they will come back strongly.

    Thanks for beautiful punches.
