Soft breezes whisper through these lonely halls
a place of strength and power,
yet memories rustle in satin solitude
where dreams were kept at bay.
While dark clouds gather, these building blocks
outline this solitary figure,
whose thoughts now wander to what could be
a spirit not complete.
This enlightenment of such emptiness
where a soulmate is obscured,
in restlessness pervading
the time has come to search.
A life not meant for emptiness
will surely end up void and hollow,
Spring has come for soul to bloom
to leave this mantle of futile safety.
Such fervour beckons boldly
and can be ignored no longer,
completion of life is the key
as the step to forever is finally taken.
