Analysis of Somber



Solemn solitude,
I owe you my gratitude.
Peaceful and quiet is your embrace,
Soothing my spirit with whispers of grace.
As you gently caress,
My emotions I confess;
Understanding and patience,
Relieveing my stress.
No one perceives my deepest of depths,
Like how you envision what I don't express.
You're always there to ease my groan,
As long as you're here, I'm never alone.
Dear solitude, with you I depend,
In the chaos of everything; You are my friend.
