Isolation

I am isolated by my unawareness
It leaves me numb
Adds a stupid giggle in ignorance
Every time I recall fire
I remember it freezing me
Ice sculpture the fallen years of adolescence
Trickle into a deep pool
Shallow by the holy relics and communion
Back into the black hole I will crawl
Past the crevices munching on bitter earth with worms
Let it rain, I mock tears
I imitate fall, by failure
I spring past mischievous
Winter matches my soul
Summer dew is wet perspiration of succession 
I live by isolation and honor the lowly
Or be the lonely, who have not a one in company
I am what you will succumb to... eventually
