The Presence of Solitude

In the presence of solitude, I meet with my true, authentic self
I become one with my Creator
I want for nothing else,

I hold tightly to this presence because it’s not meant to stay
I get peace from within
I let go of all dismay,

As if a shadow was cast upon me, no distractions can befall
I recognize my abundance
Indeed, I have it all,

In the stillness and calm, I journey within
I meditate, I enter a realm where there’s no end,

Here I sit, tapped into a place of gratitude
This is me, embracing in The Presence of Solitude.

What is necessary, after all, is only this: solitude, vast inner solitude. To walk inside yourself and meet no one for hours – that is what you must be able to attain.” ~ Rainer Marie Rilke
