Solitude

Solitude

To be alone.

But not lonely.

To withdraw 

But not from one's self.

To be secluded

But not from one's inner thoughts.

To be isolated

But not from one's heart. 

To retreat

But not from God.

To reflect upon and to nourish

The soul.

..... (because silence can be poetic too)

.....

I want to make a leave application
A month or two long
From all the positions I'm holding
From being me.
I don't want to see anyone
I don't want to do what I must do
Other than my duties to God
Other than for God
…..

…..
…..
But,
…..
Being a wife is also a sacred duty
Being a daughter, a mother and being me.
…..
…..
…..
…..
Or maybe I can do what Abraham A.S had to do
Be silent for three days
For a different reason of course
For peace and tranquility if I may
…..
…..
All these wishful thoughts,
I think I will do my solat.

*Solat, is a Muslim prayer act, with a defined set of body positions and recitations.
