Ballad of a No one
Black me, colored world
I crave your affection
I am tough as rocks
I still have a soft anterior
I want to cry
Fill a pond with my shed tears
My molecules are vibrating
I am still frozen
My smiles are leaves
The world autumn
They all have a goal
Why is my compass broken
Lonely me, they all have a companion
Dear reader, when you read this
I hope you find company.
I am an artist,
I cry in letters
The pain I know
Its sealed vacuum
The worded tears the world sees
Are just stringed letters.
