            Perfect Solitude
                                 By Sami Khalil                          

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I want to invite you
Even if you're uncomfortable
To my perfect solitude.

I want you to relax
Take a deep breath
Mind you this imprisonment
We are being glued.

Would you happen to know
Or have you overlooked
The backgrounds we share
The velvet thoughts
The adverts fading away
Into the hypnotic mood.

Lady of grace
Of brighter mornings
Of mislabeled nights
I want to remake songs
Where everything is
Merely a cover
A muffled substitute.

I want to lead in love
Keeping it low key
Where every prelude 
Is a quiet rendition 
To these two hearts
In perfect gratitude.

I want to invite you
When you are comfortable
To my perfect solitude
To my perfect solitude...

I was once told that solitude is to be destitute of Love, or the one you love; I was much younger then and I didn't believe. Now, with all these years on my shoulders, I'm a believer..
Now to your profound poetry; the perfect solitude would only be not that, but perfection with the one that makes you whole.... Lovely, and apologies for going off in at tangent

Solitude is easy, just take a lone country walk at 3 am, with just the rustle of some nocturnal little creature hunting in the hedgerows; 'perfect' solitude is different and that one word in tht title entirely changed the way I read this poem.

'I want to lead in love
Keeping it low key
Where every prelude
Is a quiet rendition
To these two hearts
In perfect gratitude.' This is a quite beautiful love poem.

ah Sami, you are the romantic and romantic poet... spoken like someone who knows and has felt love, who has shared "solitude" with your beloved... to have experienced this.. wonderful... and to be able to write about it, even more so..

This is so soothing. Isn't it the greatest unity when solitude is shared? I love the concept of this poem because I know what that unity is. Beautifully composed.

Yes indeed Sami when two kindred spirits are drawn together and unite, sweet music is the only natural consequence and enthuses all around !

A deeply romantic , heart rendering and soul edifying piece of poetry!

This makes me think about an alternate universe. One where things are different and only we ourselves can go there, but we don't want to go alone. Some would say that the alternate universe would be scary or "uncomfortable" but in all honesty it could be way better than reality. That's my take on this, and a very good story one I think many of us pander on, but never talk about. Thanks for bringing it up my friend.

Beautiful use of words my friend.
"I want to invite you
When you are comfortable
To my perfect solitude
To my perfect solitude.."

Reads like a lovely serenade of sigh worthy sentiments. What woman wouldn't want to hear these tempting words? :) Bravo!
