A Loner's Lament

what else could i write?
nothing’s left in my fight.
when all reluctant faces turn,
my eyes will darken and burn.

i thought of many solutions,
yet none have seized.
i brought in more pollutions,
in my life, i never pleased.

what else is in sight?
promising souls alight
in an upbring of my return,
from within a body i churn.

burnt and darkened eyes,
turn to a face that cries.
with nothing left in my fight,
what else could i possibly write?
