Alone Poems

Lying, thinking
Last night
How to find my soul a home
Where water is not thirsty
...

I am alone, in spite of love,
In spite of all I take and give—
In spite of all your tenderness,
Sometimes I am not glad to live.
...

I am not jealous
of what came before me.
...

Where had I heard this wind before
Change like this to a deeper roar?
What would it take my standing there for,
Holding open a restive door,
...

In contact, lo! the flint and steel,
By sharp and flame, the thought reveal
That he the metal, she the stone,
Had cherished secretly alone.
...

Go from me, summer friends, and tarry not:
I am no summer friend, but wintry cold,
A silly sheep benighted from the fold,
A sluggard with a thorn-choked garden plot.
...

If God compel thee to this destiny,
To die alone, with none beside thy bed
To ruffle round with sobs thy last word said
And mark with tears the pulses ebb from thee,-
...

Dead men are wisest, for they know
How far the roots of flowers go,
How long a seed must rot to grow.
...

So alone in my bed
Alone listening to nightly whispers
Alone in my thoughts
Alone standing in court
...

My Pillow gazes upon me at night
Empty as a gravestone;
I never thought it would be so bitter
To be alone,
...

The abode of the nightingale is bare,
Flowered frost congeals in the gelid air,
The fox howls from his frozen lair:
Alas, my loved one is gone,
...

The night, it is deserted
from the mountains to the sea.
But I, the one who rocks you,
I am not alone!
...

Then said a teacher, 'Speak to us of Teaching.'

And he said:
...

The lonely soul wanders
Alone in the walks of life
No other soul as his companion
The lonely soul wanders
...

Alone i lay on a wooden raft
Alone i stay in the dark
Alone i pray to survive
Alone i may not survive
...

At night, when the sea cradles me
And the pale star gleam
Lies down on its broad waves,
Then I free myself wholly
...

It is not given to every man to take a bath of multitude; enjoying a crowd is an art; and only he can relish a debauch of vitality at the expense of the human species, on whom, in his cradle, a fairy has bestowed the love of masks and masquerading, the hate of home, and the passion for roaming.

Multitude, solitude: identical terms, and interchangeable by the active and fertile poet. The man who is unable to people his solitude is equally unable to be alone in a bustling crowd.
...

All alone, a snowman stands, staring out at the world.
What a life!
Short, cold, freezing really,
rigidly waiting for the 'melting' feeling to arrive.
...

Loneliness becomes a 'space' in time where,
Nobody seems to speak to you, you are alone,
Suspended, whilst time endlessly continues,
And your alien existence turns your mind to stone.
...

Alone
Not lonely alone, wanting someone to join Alone.

Alone
...

Left alone to face the wrath
left alone to run and escape
left alone to bear the pain
left alone to undergo the sufferings;
...

I was born alone,
I live alone,
I eat alone,
I walk alone,
...

How much you will weep,
I alone know;
how much you will miss him,
I alone know;
...

Alone
All alone not at all
Alone
Alone is heaven
...

Alone, all alone as you are treated with cosmetic courtesy in love,
Alone, all alone as you are spoiling your thoughts taking turns through the phases of night,
Alone, all alone as you have sold your soul to an apparently nonchalant being,
Alone, all alone as you are refused to be understood,
...

Internal darkness, internal pinning strain your very nerve,
Gobbling the tender heart which quivers like autumn grasses
Wherwithal being graced by sofest dews of pensive sense
...

Alone siawash sit,
Alone siawash think,
Alone I experience,
Alone siawash cry,
...

Leave me alone; to battle my loneliness till the time I emerged irrevocably triumphant; sprinted forward in untamed exhilaration to bask in the full fervor of
life,

Leave me alone; to experience each unfurling moment as it painstakingly unveiled; retrospect my cherished moments of the past; when I innocuously bounced on the
...

Walk alone walk alone walk alone, when I saw a tearful cloud,
Walk alone walk alone walk alone, when I saw new silent cloud,
I am asking why? I am asking why? I am asking why?
There is no gap between you and I, walk alone forever,
...
