Solitude of a Mind

Would you care to notice?
be brave enough to follow?
Me, across my divide
To my lonely cavernous hide?

To sit with me and ponder
the rushing world outside
as in futility it plunders
the Earth - my beauteous, bounteous, bride?

to sit with me and wonder
whence we came, whither we go, and why?
To hear the gushing silence
the story writ, untold
a silent, nascent, cry!

To plunge deep, into my depths
The darkness, thick, blinding black.
In search of a glimmer, of light, of truth,
something my soul could track

Would you dare to seek the real me?
To come inside and see
The futility within,
near-perfect twin,
Of the futility without?

The solitude of a mind
wandering aimlessly about..
