Solitary Confinement

In a cornerstone of darkness
I sit alone
In the emptiness I have created
That I can call my own
Forever learning
What it is to be me
With this twisting and turning
Of this unwanted reality
I banish myself to the shadows
Abolished to the gallows
Of my solitary mind
Lonely bricks of grief
Building walls to high to reach
To wide to cross
So helpless and lost
Condemned to this castle of hurt
Built on a hill of sorrow
Surrounded by moat & dirt
Where I shiver and shake
From the coldness
Of a world so cruel
