Distant bells open my eyes
Bringing me back to where i am
My dream now lost in my mind
I'm awake as I'll ever be

There is a certain satisfaction in solitude especially when it feels like you are constantly living in an over crowded world of sound and the fury of people around you. Sad but also embracing a state of the human condition.

/They giggle, leaving a shadow of innocent laughter/ This lovely line touches me. It points by not pointing to rude forces that are really at play. It reminds us that worthwhile things are so fragile, yet they are tenacious in their way. They must be, because the golden silence lets them stretch longer.

I love this poem. It's rich in imagery and message as well. Only when we are comfortable in our own skin, able to be alone with ourselves, that we discover amazingly that 'aloneness' isn't so bad after all. Solitude and the space to feel ourselves in our own world of beauty is a true gift and well expressed here.
