Solidarity

solidarity;

no voices to call out to, calling back to you

the silence, blinding as you reach out for noise

something, anything, but nothing's there

yet, there's a peace in that nothing

the serenity of it all, encased in the quiet, never to fall

nothing to speak to, but the thoughts in your head

they ring back, as you slip away within yourself

the solidarity soaks you in a cool warmth, that's home

it's warm embrace with nothing other than yourself

your whole life behind you, and absence in front

you keep a fragment of yourself in this solidarity

fall back into it, when all you need is yourself

cause there's no stress of living when you're living alone

no one to come home to, no dishes to clean

there's no one to disappoint,

Except Yourself.
