I'm surrounded by souls,
However, I'm nothing but alone
I sleep with two other creatures of my kind in the very same room
Nevertheless, I'm the only one left when my eyes shut
I talk to many ears throughout the day,
Although none of them really hear me
I sit close to many warm bodies,
But I am still frozen inside
I feel their touch graze my skin,
Even so, still numb I'll always be
I see them stare at me, judging character by appearance
Nonetheless, they are still blind and without guidance
I feel for those who chose horrible paths,
Their disabled souls force my care to go untouched
My tears of despair fall on closed, parched mouths
While my breath of courage blows against hardened hearts
I'm completely accompanied but utterly alone,
No one can reach to me, but the kiss of the dark grows
Seclusion in delusion, minus a life,
Saves a small soul from heart shattering strife
