Sestina - Solace

In silent nights, when worries call,
I find comfort in the shadows of time.
A gentle whisper that breaks the darkness,
softly loses itself in the heart, like a light.
Memories dance, sometimes strong, sometimes soft,
and bring peace where once pain reigned.

The waves of loneliness, tirelessly flowing,
carry me gently into the expanses of being.
A warm breeze that embraces the soul,
protects against the cold that stares within me.
So I hold tight to the hope that glows,
and find in it what brings me peace.

When tears fall, a rain of questions,
the moon gives me strength to see them.
A ray of light breaks through the hardened night,
and shows me the paths I once lost.
In silence awakens the whisper of time,
that tells me even darkness bears love.

So I wander on, in the glow of my dreams,
and seek comfort in the eyes of life.
Every step brings me closer to myself,
a gentle embrace, a soft feeling.
For in the shadows of doubt and fear,
I find comfort where the light gently blooms.

In the darkness, a spark shines so small,
the comfort in loneliness, never quite alone.
I hold on to what ignites the soul.
