Dear Patient One

Dear Patient One
(The Essence of Solitude)

Dear patient one, I know, you feel helplessly alone,
Uprooted by the trials of life, your body feels prone.

The path up ahead seems dark, there is no lucid light,
You are about to let go, and give up, you no longer want to fight.

All your hopes and dreams, like glass, they too have become shattered,
What you once thought would always be, now never really mattered.

Everyone mocks at the sight of your struggle, and gloats in the torture of your pain,
Effort soon becomes effortless, where there is no visual gain.

Dear patient one, I know, the journey seems hard to bear,
Shackled by the transcendental fear, you no longer desire to care.

You feel that life has ceased its means, it has been brought to a sudden pause,
There is no knowledgeable reasoning, or an obtainable supportive cause.

The time quickened into day, where the nights seemed to tarry long,
You reminisced back to the past of days, when your heart had a lovely song.

Heightened by a sudden outbreak, of the primitive silent rage,
You close up the fearful animal, and you lock it within a cage.

Dear patient one, I know, you have screamed loud on the inside,
You have wondered if this time would pass, if these feelings could subside.

You have prayed to God up above, and foolishly ask Him why,
You are reminded to have hope in Him, like an eagle you mount wings and fly.


*     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *

You then began to cry.


*     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *     *

Suddenly, you stop, and deep within your heart you hear,
That sweet, lovable, gentle tone, from the one who knows you dear.

Embraced by the sound of His glory, in a peaceful, harmonious voice,
Your soul is overwhelmed by His grace, where your inner being sufficiently rejoice.

Dear patient one, there is a reason, behind your lost, and lonely season.  

Allow the spirit to guide your heart, and endure the test of fortitude.
Take this moment alone with God, into the tranquil solitude.

There, you will subsequently find, the divine destiny that awaits you.
