SOLITUDE
Sometimes there’s a need for solitude
Not isolation but some distance
Not loneliness but breathing room
Away from the hustle, out of the bustle
A place to loosen my tangled thoughts
A spot to calm both heart and soul
A time to hear the soft whisper of trees
Or track the waves wash against the shore
Free to lay back, watch the clouds at play
Free to see darkness fill with countless stars
Yes, there are times I welcome a bit of solitude
Not isolation but some distance
Not loneliness but breathing room
