This awakening has cost me the company of fellow men.
Even when I am not conveying my deepest thought,
even when our conversations are a mere pastime,
they cannot bear to be in the presence of me.
My shallow and long ago digested thoughts
strike them as terrifying, deep abysses.
And I cannot undo that which I have come to know.
The roads I had once walked are forever sealed off.
