alone

In the quiet of the night,

Where shadows dance with dimming light,

I find myself, just me, alone,

A world apart, a place unknown.

No voices call, no footsteps near,

The silence wraps, a blanket sheer.

I wander through my thoughts so deep,

In solitude, my soul does keep.

The stars above, they softly gleam,

A distant, cold, eternal dream.

They watch me with their ancient eyes,

Reflecting truths and whispered lies.

In loneliness, I seek my truth,

A journey inward, back to youth.

To understand, to find my way,

Through empty nights and lonesome days.

Yet in this space, I learn to grow,

To face the fears I’ve yet to show.

For in the end, I find my peace,

In solitude, my soul’s release.
