Who Am I-Who Am I-

Who am I,who am I? Thinking in the deep solitude. Night falls on my face, far from the city,far from people. This emotion I feel is foreign, as strange to me as my excistance, I think of my life, my life before anyone, I shout,facing the river, I struggle in its raging waters, its white tongue dancing in swirls of grey, lifting me up in its branches to die, The anguish,the lonliness,the solitude, A fire in my soul burns in dark crosses, and my heart weeps,scorched by curls of flame. what silence echoes here,what torment, Hours of pain,days of sadness,months of emptiness, Such a weeping chained to my heart, Shaking my earth- My soul wonders,unending,galloping in shadow, Thinking,burying memories in the deep solitude. Who am I,who am I,I ask? California Blue
