The Solitary Soul’s
“The Solitary Soul”
Not every imagined life
feels worthy of being lived.
Sometimes even our brightest dreams
arrive wearing guilt.
They say solitude is sacred —
a quiet room where the soul learns its own name.
And perhaps it is.
For in aloneness,
we meet ourselves without applause.
Be grateful, they whisper —
for breath,
for sky,
for the unseen hands that hold us together.
And I am grateful…
yet still, some nights feel unbearably heavy.
There are moments
when existence feels misplaced,
like a shadow cast where no light stands.
Moments when I wish
not to die —
but simply to dissolve,
to rest from the noise of being.
Sometimes I dream of becoming a void —
not emptiness,
but silence.
Not disappearance,
but peace.
And yet…
the soul remains.
Still breathing.
Still searching.
