How did I get here?
In this room
No windows
Absent of doors
Walls clear
Flawless and glass
Icy to my touch
I can see them
Their sympathetic eyes see me
Reaching out to touch
To connect
Hand to hand
Like mirror
Yet separated by chill
I just want to feel
Feel the fire that burns outside
Take in their warmth
I'm so cold
Frozen and plastic
In the smiles I wear.
A blanket of silence falls
Moon in glory
Stars singing it's song
I dance alone
To their melancholy tunes
Spinning around and around again
Always kept by these same walls.
Outside they've gone
And I, alone still
Circle in the solitude
With nothing
I wait
For the fire to rise again
To pretend I feel it's warmth
And welcome it's light
But it only reminds me
And shines on the things
I want to forget.
