Solitude

A solitary step
Echoes in the night
A lonely trek begins
On the edge of twilight
Violet pink hues
Color the sky
Speckled with stars
As dark draws nigh
The journey a quest
A longing for peace
The oneness of silence
A sweet release
The shadows grow deep
The hours grow long
The blackness sings
A lullabye song
Steps on the path
Softly resound
Quiet is the night
Where hope is found.
