Chapter 2 - Alone

I'm surrounded by souls.
However, I'm nothing but alone.
I sleep with two other creatures of my kind, in the very same room.
Nevertheless, I'm the only one left when my eyes shut.


I talk to many ears throughout the day.
Although none of them really hear me.
I sit close to many warm bodies.
But I am still frozen inside.I feel their touch graze my skin.


Even so, still numb I'll always be.
I see them stare at me, judging character by appearance.
None the less, they are still blind and without guidance.
I feel for those that chose horrible paths,


Their disabled souls force my care to go untouched.
 My tears of despair fall on closed, parched mouths.
While my breath of courage blows against hardened hearts.
I'm completely accompanied but utterly alone.


No one can reach to me now, but the kiss of the dark grows.
Seclusion in delusion, minus a life,
Saves a small soul from heart shattering strife.
