Virtuality
#11
This poem has that ineffable quality of mystique, beneath a few tired clichés, making it a largely enjoyable read. I agree that the last line should be split into two - that jarred with me when I read it. Also, if you are in the sea of loneliness, the notion that you are some distance from the shore of solitude that you are staring at seems peculiar, as you seem to be simultaneously in isolation and distant from it. Perhaps the omnipresence of isolation is your point, but give it some thought, and if it wasn't what you intended, perhaps change "Staring at the shore of solitude" to a more local verb that conveys the immediacy of your isolation such as "Smelling the shore of solitude". (terrible example verb, but I thought I'd give you such a bad one that you'd need to change it and preserve your original authorship Wink )

Apologies for probably misunderstanding you, I liked the feel of your poem regardless.
