Solitude is a poem written by Nisha Raviprasad and shared with The Ugly Writers under the theme Retrospective for the month of September
I walk down
cobbled streets
into the fog of the unkown
yet in the arms
of my haggard life,
I feel a welcome tug
a tug lulling
at the crevices of my soul…
You had walked
beside me,
draped me in rich
blossoms of velvet roses
and smothered me
with honey sweet
love
But how beautiful
is this solitude
I feel today
among coffee and books.
I don’t miss you
anymore
‘Coz I know
you never meant
any of it at all.
that tug is my drink of solitude.
