Poem -

all that lies within

all that lies within

I return to my solitude
to the place I know so well
I return to close the door
to remain within
my walls and my silence
with what I lost, what I still possess
my sorrows, my fears
my thoughts and my inner voice
I return to heal
wounds and memories
to close my eyes and cry perhaps
until my inside is empty
of doubt and pain
Β 
I return to my solitude
to the place of my shelter
with my dreams, my secrets and
the sky for my window
where no one hurts or
abandons anyone
I return to remember
I am an axis
to let spin, to reconcile and
to leave everything
in the same place
I return to the nature of my being
to close my eyes and cry perhaps
until my inside is empty Β 
of guilt, things to forgive and
things I will never understand

only then
I will be able to see who I am
in all that lies within my being
to start afresh a future
unburdened by the past
though loneliness surrounds me
I know that I am not alone

if only...

The power of inner healing is beautifully displayed here. I sense some purging, of deep reflection. Like the hermit who seeks relief inwardly. A clever writeΒ

the radiance on her face
