Communication 83

a safe concentration  

I have no reason
to carry these burdens anymore
I have no mind 
to know what for
‘myself’ was stolen
a good few years ago,
where it travelled, no one knows,
I for one will never be the same
as strange as it sounds
I felt no pain
just a brief encounter
with the bruised unknown,
no love, no laughter, no route home,
life feels so wrong,
I’ve lost my way,
there is no chorus or sweet refrain,
I’ve been subject to my misery
for far too long
there are no lyrics 
to complete my song,
to admit my downfall would be a lie,
I try and try again,
it appears misery is now my friend,
an uncontrollable flame,
impossible to tame,
it’s all so very clear now,
I’m on my own,
‘misery’ 
penetrates deep 
within the bone
