A solitary place
All opaque and no lace
Impenetrable to sight
I can't let you see, you might get a fright
When most of them are thriving for the States
I stay calm at the state of being alone
It is only when I am here that I feel at home
Knowing a lot of people doesn't mean having a lot of friends
I still remain calm in the state of isolation.
So-Li-Tude
I'm cluttered at this point
Been tracking down a gratifying relinquish
If clarity hits me I might just finish
Am going through the motions
But all that's there is waves, setting bars of caution  
No surprise, I've known it for the longest time
I hold the key to all of this isolation
Don't be alarmed it's only a precaution
Solitude....my world of introspection.
