Full of Life

Her spirit and heart came round
out of doors: She would be happy
entirely alone,
and every breath so
full of life.

Solitary Rambling

I took such a taste
for this solitary rambling
that I did not fear
breaking forth alone.
My confidence proved plenty
and sheltered by my cautious counsel
I went wandering
in search of myself.

Justly Selfish

I had a deeply-rooted fear
of concealed trouble
that could inflict seasons of gloom and silence,
depression welcomed by
growing happiness.
We must be for ourselves in the long run - justly selfish.

Perfect Recluse

Her anger was furious, her love fierce.
However, she had a propensity to invariably vex.
She learnt she had not once trusted.
She was a perfect recluse,
perfectly contented,
how long before those she notice, you could not climb the frost.
