Deepest Isolation

Written by: Spring Child, Narquem Kith'Vahni
Date: Monday, June 5th, 2006
Addressed to: Everyone


Bound in my woes of mortal flesh:
I softly pad,
Aloof... alone...
My mind whirling in eddies of pain.
My heart felt crushed in somber pitched gloom.

My tears fall hot on my pillow in angst:
Like leaden drops,
Feeling... unfeeling...
Callused to life's most bitter rewards.
Downcast by my own imperfect heart.

A pallor of dark stalks me now:
My deepest heart,
Saddened... mourning...
My spirit extinguished in consuming heat.
My dread smoldering in eternal cold.

The light so far off from me now:
I am blind,
Unseeing... unknowing...
I grope for love but purchase pain.
Happiness but a wraith beyond my grasp.

Penned by my hand on the 7th of Aequitas, in the year 493 AD.
