WALLFLOWER

I am awake long past the time I should be awake

I think about the futility of life

And how fragile it is

How a few days without food or sleep or water can ruin us

How we are caught up in our own illusions

How we are perpetually lonely no matter how we try to cling to others

They have their own drama to live

Their own storyline to play out

We can dance with them for awhile but then the dance moves on

Spinning out of control and I am once again standing alone in a dark corner
