Solitary Refinement

Children always love themselves.
Adolescene makes them flee.
Spirits ride the carousel.
Goes around left unretrieved.

Mother earth will hug her sun.
Prays that I won't fade away.
I walk through the grassy fields.
From the houses I will stray.

In distance I disappear.
The remnants hang in the air.
Rain will cease and fog will clear.
As I curl inside my lair.

In the dark I sit alone.
Scribble agony on pads.
I make things to call my own.
I grow dreams I never had.
