‘Be alone; that is where ideas are born. ‘ – Nikola Tesla
Still nights, filled with shadows
Here I sit, alone.
No thoughts, no fears.
No plaguing doubts.
Only me, and the stillness about.
I fidget, wishing to break the spell.
But I push on
Knowing it’s hell.
My breath, a siren to my ears.
My heartbeat, a thunderous cheer.
I stay alone. I sit with myself.
I learn truths. See visions and dreams.
I question them all.
What do they mean?
I learn. I grow.
The smile begins to show.
The journey has begun.
I’ve lost it all, and found a soul.
