?

Alone I lay, forsaken and forlorn
As desolate isolation saturates the silence
of my solitary confinement
My Self-imposed segregation secretly announces
my dissociation with the world
And neon lights flash
Advertising my seclusion and loneliness - but only to myself
The void within sucks all life
into the black hole of despair
that resides deep inside of me
Stealthily awaiting the next morsel of hope
Hungrily devouring any semblance of longing
It leaves behind only the wretched bones
of sorrow and pain
As a constant reminder of the despondant gloom
I have bathed in forever and a day
Of the hopelessness
that has soaked into the core of my soul
And stained the very fabric of my being
That has always lain crumpled
in a heap upon the floor
of this vain attempt at living life...
