Musings of a Messed Up Mind - 29. Solitary

1

I won’t stay and bother you

Have no fear of that

I won’t get in your way

It’s clear where you’re at

I can say something

You just shoot me down

No worries have it your way

Do just as you please

I’ll go back to solitary

Alone with my dreams

2

There’s nothing in my heart

No joy that I feel

Time to bury myself again

Solitary.

Insular.

Alone.

But I can’t say this

What will others think?

It matters not.

Only

Words

do.

3

so very long ago i sold my soul

true happiness then i'll never know

sometimes there are glimpses let

through the black velvet curtain

scraps of me are left on the ground

my dreams and hopes sold as junk

I pour over pages on ebay

But there’s nothing left of me
