Scarred I walk alone

Scarred I walk alone

Always alone

Does no one see?

Living happily

I breathe igneous

Sulfur breath

On the corner I stand

On the roof I crouch

I watch your lives

I stand and jump

Ground closes

There is no ground

Worlds fade

I stand-alone

On my plateau

The rose beside me

Hands clasped

I am free

Forever alone?

This piece if Im right is one experiencing extreme pain and commiting suicide.How sad to end ones life and not realize that life within one is more precious then any cynic we may come to encounter in the realm of what we call the living.One must never given into the cynics ,they are the insecure who know not the beauty of life andbecause they are insecure and filled with thier own personal pain ,thier outreach will always be negative till some one takes the time to befriend them and teach them different. A heavey piece filled with pain and emotion. Strikes a nerve in anyone who cares about humanity.great write!
