When You Are Alone
Sometimes you get lost
In the silent act or post.
Emptiness beyond belief.
No familiar touch and look
When you are lost in silent act.
It is a real fact, I checked,
To smooth the pain
You do not say anything at all
When you are alone.
No familiar hand to hold
Because there is nobody to call.
There is no voice to calm the fear,
When you are getting old.
Unseen, unfold, and untold
When dissolving in silence
Because you say nothing at all. –
Instead, try to stand tall
When you are alone.
Do not fall
When you are alone in silence.
Instead, learn to make your own trance.
