#singlelife


Press play.
 

(A lone voice whispers)


Do we

The broken lonely souls on Earth


Sometimes run
From a new rebirth


And finding a true love
We deserve


For in running

When in true flight


Do we find a strange soothing solace

In the sleepless drama of a self imposed karma


In that races dirt


Found in the middle of a dark endless
Night


When we no longer need to look
To get hurt


By opening a new leather bound book
Of possible trauma


Filled with emotional
middle age

Melodrama

Foundation of the piece.

Do the newly separated find a form of salvation in staying single?
