For the lonely

Alone;
At the beach house, the heavens as my roof;
I watch the stars pay homage to the bride of the night.
Anger, hate, despondency, despair
Were surging in me, choking, unable to escape;
But in my moment of utter loneliness
I saw the twinkling lights winking at me,
Smiling – welcoming a lonely wanderer to their bosom.
Below me – the breaking of the waves
Murmuring, whispering, lapping along the sands.
Sounds of joy, contentment, hope.
Soothing ambassadors of peace.
Their twirling fingers beckon me,
Teasing, inviting me to join them
On their eternal carefree journey.
I am lonely no more.
Who can be
With true, forever faithful, unchanging friends?
At peace with the world
I relaxed, enjoying their company.
