How it is Now

compared to how it was then?

SOLITAIRE

I sit in defining silence,
too painful to breath in,
and contemplate the reason
I'm sitting here again.

While life plays out before me,
I shiver as I see
An empty being fall apart
and realize that it's me.

So far we've come to end it now,
but nothing good can come somehow.
When life is only passing by,
We're waiting, hoping just to die.

I wish that life was just a game.
A board with peices all the same.
with real instructions that would say,
"Reverse-move three the other way."

It saddens me to know I've lost
I know I've had my boundries crossed.
But, then again, next time I'll know
which turns to take-which ways to go.

And while I play this game alone,
I'll know in some ways, I have grown.
I wish someone would join my game,
For maybe they could change the name.
