<p>I open my mind and I let the thoughts spill out<br />
constantly onto the paper before me, considering<br />
all the many words that I might say, that I might<br />
let slip out of my mind, slip out into the world<br />
all around me, that I might tell you, that I might<br />
allow myself to hear.</p>
<p>So I will say many a hallowed thing, so I will let <br />
it be known that, in all the splendor of my mind,<br />
there is not a thing that I can not tell a soul,<br />
if only that soul were ready to hear it, if only <br />
that soul were ready to ask of the importance<br />
that is so contained within this reality.</p>
<p>As I sit alone, and I reflect on the curiousity<br />
placed so clearly before me, as I reflect on the<br />
world around me, as I see the darkness fade away<br />
and become light, and as I see the light itself<br />
coalesce back into the darkness, as I note the <br />
decorum of the folk associate deeper and deeper<br />
to a hidden time, I grow curious and curious,<br />
for they all make no sense, they all make no time<br />
for themselves, they all pass away like the wind<br />
blowing to some unknown destination, slowly but<br />
surely disappearing not only to the others, but<br />
to themselves; to themselves… lost, and alone,<br />
but never truly alone.</p>
<p>Loneliness is a boon, loneliness is a gift, a poison<br />
tearing through the existences.</p>
<p>Found to be disengaged from those around you and<br />
curious as to what’s real and what’s not…<br />
the reality bathes around you in the ephemeral<br />
light, just as you bathe in the reality, just<br />
as you bathe in the beauty that surrounds you,<br />
just as you deny the beauty, and just as you<br />
accept the beauty.</p>
<p>There is hope in this world, to be sure,<br />
but only if one takes the hope, only<br />
if one is to follow down the path that<br />
they truly want, only if one is to follow<br />
down the path that grants them life,<br />
that grants them love.</p>
<p>So, I walk down my path, and at the end,<br />
a lonely soul stands…<br />
Will it be you?</p>
