In my solitude
of endless minds of starry skies
I travel through the darkest eyes
changing form and shape I breathe in
and out
for countless cycles
I move about—tiring of nothing
my penetrating gaze
shrouded in mysteries smoke and haze
that lingers on for days
and days
I know your type
I know you too
In my solitude I’ve been with you
A complex concept
that many won’t touch—too much
of a computational hazard but
who needs you
when the world is mine
I kissed the deity to make him shine
a world of light
and life on me traveling…
…traveling near and far
in my solitude
I shed my skin
and bare my head
running
this way and that with angel wind with
love and lust and prayers to send
I’m feeling cool and blue and dark
and wet and
for those who cannot see me as yet
I am a woman fulfilled with sweet desire
This is no mood
THIS IS
no
mood
just me alone in my solitude
I really appreciate that you read my poem! I incorporated the principles of 'found poetry' and have given you two poems in one if you read only the bold print. A 'found poem' takes chunks of words, varying in number/length from a previously written work, with additions and deletions, and pieces them together like a word collage.

Awesome!!! Stunning solitude!!! Love it!!!💕❤️❤️
I don’t think I’ve ever related so strongly to a poem someone else wrote. I read this first, and I heard it in my inner voice. Then I listened to the powerful calm of your voice and loved it even more. 🤍
You go, Dani!
This is a poetic masterpiece. I resonate deeply with your words as I too love my solitude, and your ending is straight fire. 🩵
