Seclusion



Here I am,
With despair,
Dying slowly.
Does she care?

My last breath,
As it's written
Is the first
Of a kitten.

Knowing much,
Yet nothing still,
I aim the pistol
But to kill?

No, I'll go
To sleep just now.
No more pistol,
This I vow.

Sleeping to
Escape this hell.
With my life,
Not much to tell.

So far away
From all I love,
I suffocate
Inside this glove.

Isolation,
To extremes.
Sleepless nights.
Few sweet dreams.

This life of mine,
It's nothing now.
Make it something?
Don't know how.

With her love
I conquer all,
But without
I only fall.

Simple tasks
Deteriorate me.
I'm dying slowly.
Does she see?
