The night has a voice,
it calls to me.
Shadows my heart from the encompassing light.
Loner by choice,
I have no use fo love.
This life has left me cold.
I drift through the years,
unseeing faces passing me by,
I remain disconnected.
The history of my existence left far behind,
I choose a path of solitude and exile.
I can no longer relate,
there is no common thread,
I hide myself away.
Unreachable, untouchable.
My loneliness like a crack in the pavement, growing over time.
I am isolated from life in this sea of humanity.
I tell myself this is what I wanted,
this is my only protection.
My senses frozen in time,
and the words of my own thoughts, echoing in my mind.
I speak to no one.
The memory of my own voice fades away.
I pray for darkness, the only escape from myself,
and I dream of years gone by,
and I lose myself in the memories.
I embrace the oblivion.
I clutch at the night in hopeless desperation.
Inevitably the darkness leaves me,
betrays me.
Daylight comes unannounced to begin it's torment,
I remind myself,
this is what I wanted.
I am protected from loves pain.

Good grief! How gloriously sad. Sad in the words written and
even sadder that some of us choose this solitary life for
fear of ever feeling the pain of loss. This really tugged
at my heartstrings P, and whats more it whispered
things. A wonderfully creative and emotive piece.
Beautiful, even in it's sadness.
