Today I find that loneliness

of a tree surrounded by sidewalk

that one light in the darkness

suddenly talking to myself

that rediscovering how alone I am in this world

that red in the sea of blue and green

Belief that I can't find true love

because belonging means choosing

staying on that simple path through the woods

is not for me.

I run because pain is my comfort zone

where I belong

wondering alone through the thickest of woods

continuously fighting and scrapping myself

letting the ruby color cover my skin

this is home to me

and it's sad that being happy is always short lived

I choose this life
