Beauty Of Loneliness

What is more beautiful
Than my loneliness?
When, in the late hour
Of my lonely night,
You come to me...
Hold my hand
And take me
To the valleys far off
Away from this selfish world of lust...
Where there is none
But you and me...
Melting like ice
In the sunlight of love
To flow
Into the sea of eternity!
— Wafi, May 13, 2010

The poem supprised me with the title

I came into the poem expecting aloneness but there was just a glimpse and then 'she ' took you away from being alone, It made me feel cheated like you were never really alone. As a poem the rhythm is excellent and the language lovely but why did it make me feel this way about it...maybe cheated from my own lonlyness maybe jealious of yours having someone to take your hand and lead you away. Wow where did that response come from!!!!! Seabhac
