Isolation (a sonnet)
Now touching on this isolation writing
I touch it now I am the daylight fighting.
This winter's day of clouds grey overcast
To wait a week or two just to outlast.
I've found something that I could not say
Favor romance on a dismal day.
Something in my heart becomes uncertain
I wish that I could be a better person.
I think of my soul and its incarnations
I think of drugs debasing kids and nations.
I think about my lost Arcadian dream -
My consciousness just currents down a stream.
I wish that I could find my better half
In this waiting game that is my life.

Sometimes even nature as it is, gives us a mood that day.
It is good to shut off everything and find what we have within.That is the power of silence.
Be sure you will find your better half and enlighten your life.
Thanks for sharing. SM
Isolation is necessary to write; but isolation is not always desirable.
Weather affects our mood
Love is wonderful whether on a sunny or dismal day
We all wish that we could be a better person, but being optimistic - each day is a new day cleaned slate free to do something good with our life.
The condition of one's soul is determined by one's faith and whether or not one believes.
It is normal to dream and fantasize - Lord knows I do a lot - but after all they are just dreams
Your better half hopefully will pop up when you least expect it. I think that we all are together in this waiting game.
Not any answers to your thoughts - just spinning my own thoughts. You got me thinking so early this morning! Great write.
