She sits alone,

although she is not alone.


Her content state

Fuelled by the power of light

Glowing,

From the device she holds in her hands


It gives her confidence, such confidence

which consumes her mind,

Her state

Her being


Around her, the presence of comfort

Dancing effortlessly

A graceful touch of warmth


Though she can not feel its presence

She,

Is not present


The light goes out.


A frustrated sigh

Disheartened eyes

The flick of a wrist,

Sends the machine flying


Into the sandy ground it goes

Swimming in between the grains

Sinking into its depths


Her lingering gaze

Although just for a moment,

Takes such strength to tear away

From the yearning reaching out to her


For the first time in too long,

She can hear

She can see


Streaks of coloured light melting from the skies

Flowing through the waves,

The gentle, rocking waves


Blending through the earth

Harmonizing effortlessly

With richness in depth,

And in light


Painted in front is a landscape

A canvas of such surreality,

Yet framed within reality


She can feel it,

Every touch

Every whisper


So she stays,

Listening to the earth talk

A moment of appreciation

A moment of peace


She sits alone,

although she is not alone.
