When the world explodes
with hues of rainbows,
roars with fireworks
of thunder.
I seek solitude.
When notifications
multiply, bad news
seeps through the
cracks of my screen,
when the vulnerability
of the planet’s future
is exposed.
I seek solitude.
When riots commence,
words become weapons,
humans lock horns to
prepare for combat.
I seek solitude.
When sombre shadows
conceal my inner glow,
threaten to tear down
the bridge of hope,
I have bled to build.
I seek solitude.
Solitude is my remedy,
my refuge to find silence,
to be still, in the midst
of a hurricane.
