New Avenues?
Solitude shared his cottage,
Filled his dark nights
with the embers that glowed
On the walls of weathered wood.
Morning rays warmed his heart
Solitude walked with him, silently;
traversing the rough terrain
Autumn leaves crunched beneath his boots.
Squirrels watched in awe
As he sat with solitude,
sharing his treasured trove
brimming with a painful past.
But snow-clad mountains,
adventurous life kept calling.
The day he decided to leave,
Solitude spoke to him in a familiar tone:
“We are tethered by destiny
But I admire your resilience,
your courage to seek new avenues.
Conquering grief is the biggest battle.”
