attracted to the action
in each atom is everlasting and
free of form
keep myself from happiness
yet i’m loving, laughing,
healthy and strong
my mind is stone
i’ve been sheltered from this storm
and i’m still alone

the system shocks me
teases, taunts me
yet here i am
with the flocks and their
constant back-feed
static stymied
can barely stand
been like this since i could understand
i’m not alone
and im still alone

the best has yet to come
but i fret i will miss the day when
the best will come
because i am hiding in my brain
i fear the best will always stay
sheltered from my brain-storm
and when the brain’s bone,
will i feel comfort in the knowledge
that i’m still alone?

will i feel comfort in the knowledge
that i’m still alone?
