In Solitude....

It's been quite awhile since i last logged into this site. I've been so quiet and just confined myself with reading blogs, threads of the groups i belong, emails, chat a little, etc. I don't know but I think I'm beginning to be wary of the happenings in here. I just want to be quiet, shying away from the limelight.

Things are tougher offline. Personal problems beset me, relationships suffer, worst, people around me quarrel over petty things. Last week, i tried leaving everybody. Went to a place where no one can reach me. I just want to be alone, all quiet.

I don't know until when i am going to bear this. But I hope that soon, everything gets into its proper place.


I'm nothing without you......

A VILLANELLE OF LAMENT

Tears have filled this solitude of night,
Stumbling through embittered memories,
Languid, lacking kind and graceful light.

Inward pride, our spirits now contrite,
Rummaging through Love's past injuries,
Tears swell silent, solitude of night.

Clouded visions hardly erudite,
Show a man's insensitivities
Or his lack of kind and graceful light-

Nor change in his affections despite
A woman's unaccountabilities; -
Nothing assuages solitude of night.

Apprehensive truths kept out of sight,
Long contained the backmost tragedies
Never held a kind and graceful light.

Flame that was shall never reignite
To illumine hearts' dark abysses;
So tears filled this solitude of night,
Languid, lacking kind and graceful light.

Gregory Wm. Gunn
