I do not crave
company of others
There are too many
deafening voices ,
too many crowded faces
A collection
of one life time
dwelling in my head
Time we share
was , is a given gift
Being there for each other
a stroke of faith
When I gave to you
a large piece of my heart ,
it was for safe keeping –
with no regret
Forgive me if
I can no longer be
a healer for your afflictions
repairer of your
broken dreams
I am trying to restore
my own fragile peace
Triumph over
innermost sadness
without praying eyes
looking in
At my age
I seek a quiet corner
in a secluded harbour
Enough time to sift through –
elapsed journeys
Many nights in solitude
to contemplate
the infinity of ethereal light
