SOLACE IN SILENCE

Alone I stand, in this crowded room

Surrounded by people, yet so alone

Lost in my thoughts, feeling the gloom

Desperate for someone to call my own.

I search for comfort, for a friendly face

Someone to listen, to take my hand

But it seems like the world's a lonely place

And I am but a stranger in this land.

But in the silence, I find my peace

The stillness a reminder I am enough

That in my own company, I'll find release

And the strength to rise above.

So I'll stand tall, with my head held high

Embrace the solace of my own mind

For I am never truly alone, it's just my mind

And I'll find a way to make peace with the grind.
