alone(A.Melleby, 10.07.2014)
an autumn storm
keeps me inside
for the night
watching it unfold
in the warm care
of a fireplace
that has a fire lit
alone
but far from lonesome
I write words
to make things last
the power of the letters
stronger by the word
a sentence can change someones life
alone
but far from lonesome
the rain keeps on pounding
the windows are all covered in water
raindrops are plentiful and flood the acres
surrounding my castle
an island in the rain
but I feel no pain
I like islands
I even love them
I can see you from wherever I stand
on an island
an autumn storm
keeps me inside
for the night
watching it unfold
in the warm care
of a fireplace
that has a fire lit
alone
but far from lonesome
I write words
to make things last
the power of the letters
stronger by the word
a sentence can change someones life
alone
but far from lonesome
