I had a vision
I was in a position I couldn’t envision being my decision
Cat scratching on my bedroom door
Paw in my hand and eyes grazing me from a distance
My loneliness took refuge in my throat
It kept me company, I do not mean to gloat
I was always lonely but never alone
Voices around me and bodies surround me
My loneliness became lonely so it paired up
Now I am alone
I enter the morning with no good morning
I exit the night with no good night
The tracks my feet trail, solitary traveler
In these unfamiliar four walls
My familiar tears fall
Everything new from the bed I lie in
to the pillow my head rests
Everything ancient from the feelings I feel
to the darkness I veil
Eyes of a stranger echoes in my head,
whispering tales of a fictional future
There I go again, begging for the promises
of an unpromised land
Every body no different from the other
Every voice carries the same words
There are no glitches in my matrix,
everything runs by its code.
