LONELINESS

L O N E L I N E S S

Maybe I'm that child,

Born by the widest wilderness

Breed by the driest shores

Awaiting my inevitable doom

Maybe I'm that boy

That was given a lonely life

Who wore it with pride

Like the garment of Joseph

May I'm that servant

That sleeps alongside hatred

And eat the crumbs of love

Like the poor Lazarus.

Maybe I'm that man

Craved by the warmth of the earth

But speaking to fire and air

Like Moses the prophet.

Maybe I'm that dark soul

Who loneliness took to hell

Whispering for a lover

That'll take me to paradise.

But I'm that groom

That got married to loneliness

And feasted with hatred

Maybe I'm not handsome.
