A Lonely Soul...

I wander alone in this deep abyss,
a place i call my mind,
With sorrows and griefs and pleasure and pain,
there is oh so much to find,
A memory distant, a friendship broken,
a love that was never mine,
I brood alone in the dark,
Alas! A lonely soul.

Life is strange, as it has always been,
confusing, annoying, pleasing me,
Friends have come, and gone and come,
so has love, unrequited love, fleeting elusively,
A pained heart, a broken life,
A nightmare forever haunting me,
I brood alone in the dark,
Alas! A lonely soul.

Life is more, i tell myself,
than what till now has offered me,
So much to feel, so much to see,
encompassed by a world of beauty.

Wondrous places, enchanting sights,
beautiful people, starlit nights,
Cultures of the world exotic,
with histories equally magnifique.

Then at last i wonder why,
I brood alone in the dark,
Reassuring myself again and again,
I'm not a lonely soul......
