Just Some Sun

In a transient instant, I savored the ambrosial essence of bliss, witnessed the dawn adorning, the skyline with tints of optimism. In that ephemeral moment, I felt an affinity with mankind. Yet a sinister shroud eclipsed that glint, dragging me back into my chasm of gloom. It was as though I was a monstrous entity, for whom such mundane delights, were not ordained. Am I destined, to perpetually be shrouded, in the entrails of despair and desolation? Am I condemned to everlasting isolation, my sole companions, the reverberating voices within me? Why am I deprived of the comfort, of mental serenity? Why does the world, impose upon me such malevolence, to face humanity not as kin, but as a repugnant plague?
