Shadows Serenade

Loneliness' Ballet in the Night

By Dunkink BitsPublished 2 years ago Updated 2 years ago 1 min read

In shadows I linger

Moonbeams mock my solitude

Night's cruel companion

~

Alone, but not lost

Loneliness, a sly mirage

Echoes in silence

~

A canvas of dark

Brushstrokes of fleeting solace

Dreams, elusive sparks

~

Stars, silent witnesses

Constellations weep for me

Yet, in tears, I breathe

~

Paradox blooms here

In the garden of darkness

Lonely, yet alive

Storyweaver - wanderer - a tad peculiar, like a palm tree in the tundra, yet gradually trading the warmth for a frosty embrace

    Paradoxes define our identity. Within are hidden the secrets to our souls, i feel the depth of the searching soul. Lovely poetry.
