Sitting here
alone,
Time has
stopped
I hear
distant laughter,
from a different plane
People peering
in,
Amazed at
this strange creature.
Those that
are in with me, here,
cover their faces
The light is
too bright
I must burn
alone.
My sides
hurt from time to time
Reminding me
of how much I’ve laughed
I bear the pain.
Keep laughing
Defiance is
in my soul.
Soon, I may
be too old to live like this
Stranded
alone, I’ll crumble
Things must
change,
And that….
is where you come in
