Solitude

Alone but not lonely

I make my peace with solitude

Embracing the quiet

And using this time

To grow and nurture myself

I wrap the dark around me

Like a cloak of power

I find comfort in the grace of nature

The shining moon with a Goddess’s face

Alone but not lonely

I am comfortable within myself

And in my own company

In my cocoon of solitude

Lies the butterfly of tomorrow

And so I find peace

In solitude.
