Thinking By Myself

Positioning my heart on a pole, I look deeper into my soul. Feeling empty inside, Leaving noting left to hide. I'm filled with my deep desire, It consumes me in its darkness. Among these people with no shame, All looking for fame. For I am no free man, In this cell I stand. And a voice heard among the guilty, Says sit down because you are still one of us.
