Lonely Polar Bear

Courtesy of earthweal

Did you ever feel like a lonely polar bear
darkness singing your bluest song
floating on a broken chunk of ice in fear

nowhere to go, waiting for hope to appear
searching for the place where you belong
did you ever feel like a lonely polar bear

wondering if anyone out there really cares
navigating the unknown, trying to be strong
floating on a broken chunk of ice in fear

experiencing some strange solar flare
these jigsaw pieces all jagged and wrong
did you ever feel like a lonely polar bear

once precious dreams were crystal clear
cracked heart, lost art of penguin’s song
floating on a broken chunk of ice in fear

sleeping under the stars, shedding tears
arctic nights, can be bitter-cold and long
did you ever feel like a lonely polar bear
floating on a broken chunk of ice in fear

author's note: I missed Sherry's prompt this week.
I saw this photo of the polar bear and it has been haunting me.
