Solitude

Frivolous clouds drifted away
Each with a silver lining,
Some so transparent -
Uncovering the moon behind,
Mighty dark ones
Battling to shine –
Awakened by the night sky.

Not a star there lay alone,
Skies guided by the light.
On a voyage disappeared few,
Into the solitude,
Away from the cluster -
Steered by the grit
In search of truth.

Into the darkness
Marred by desires,
Pushed by the winds
Sailed a star into loneliness.
Echoes not to be heard
Visible were no light -
It pondered,
Disguised in black, is this the truth?

None to recall,
No stone to pray
Hit by a zillion thoughts
Lost into void space.
Gripped by the obscurity
With silence strengthening -
Let loose all the very bonds.

Escaped a tear
Rolling into the deep sky,
Horizons brightened

A twinkle appeared in moonlit sky.
