SOLITARY CONFINEMENT

Grieving in solitude.

SOLITARY CONFI

SOLITARY CONFINEMENT

This unremitting pain never subsides

My inability to accept reality

May last a moment....

Or a lifetime

In this

my

self

inflicted

solitary

confinement

it is like a prison sentence to suddenly have to live without the one we love...
terminal punishment---we sit in solitary and count and recount the memories.

So very true Jacob my friend. Thank you for reading and commenting! ~Sharon

I like the poem with time and question as the base thoughts. Many types of prisons. Sometimes we don't know we are in solitary confinement. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Being lonely when in pain is one of the most difficult moments of life.. we all need someone to share our burden of grief.. Hope you are past that time now :)

What a beautiful and compassionate response to this write! Thank you so much. Yes...I am doing better now. I go through cycles of deep clinical depression and that is when I wrote this piece. ~Sharon

Yes indeed! As a man (or woman) thinketh in his heart, so is he. So much power in what we allow ourselves to dwell on eh? ~Sharon
