The inside.

Alone

What once was crowded confusion

Joy filled every few moments

Long since gone away

Time passes, and thoughts grow

Nightmares surface; smiles fade

Colors slowly turn to grey

One night of newly found belonging

Ripped away by foolishness 

No wonder I'm alone

I feel I will always be alone.

My only friends- Media outlets, and furry friends

I'm desperate for human companionship

Longing for Human touch

Missing sincere communication

Foreign lands, no familiar faces

Beyond these four walls and this screen. . . 

I am nothing

I feel nothing

I do nothing

Hiding behind so many walls

Physical and mental

So many barriers to keep me sheltered

To keep me "safe"

To keep me prisoner. . .
