prose

Alone

by kaye

alone at last, finally...

waiting all day 

to exhale

waiting for the silence

to swallow all 

wandering thoughts

and drown out 

the world's chatter.

alone-

i could sigh now...

i could cry the day's cares,

i could smile at

the mem'ries created

 and weave humble

dreams for the morrow...

alone-

makes me realize

the errors of my ways,

the lessons i have learned
and wounds that needed

healing.

alone-

with no one but my God

breathing out prayers

and waiting on Him,

gathering strength for

unknown battles

which lie ahead.

alone, at last-

i am in a place
where i can be just me.
