Isolation

Poetry

There is a painful silence reverbrating in my skull.

Nothingness that echoes in my ears, driving me insane.

I scream silently, my own voice penetrating clouded thoughts.

In a white room I sit, nothing to keep the demons away.

Not even a breath of a kiss to break the oppression.

I'm taking a train, going far, far away,

Awakening in my daydream.

Going and hiding to my place deep, deep inside,

Where the monsters aren't real and the ghosts can't come out and play.

I'm in the Glass Chamber, locked up and transparent for all to see,

Opaque eyes and thoughts for all to read.

Like a mirror that is my only friend,

I can only stare ahead into the great unknown and wonder how I got here.

I'm so hypocritical and incomprehensible.

I'm locked away in my isolation where the outside is happy,

And the inside screams for two or someone to put it out of its misery.

The lonliness I despise breaks away and makes me want you even more.

The isolation I love bonds to me and makes me sink in a little deeper.

Staring into a glass mirror, clear and transparent,

Shattering it with my mind and cracking it with my eyes,

Day breaks in the sky and I know that I can be with you.

I realize in the shattered glass and commanding silence,

I'm beautiful when I'm alone.
