ALONE IS NOT AN ILLNESS

by @wichitarick

ALONE IS NOT AN ILLNESS Born to need slowly acquire greed, curiosity brings opportunity and opens new doors Playing along starts at baseline bringing about reasons for a rhyme, mellow tunes are easier to follow Ways in life good or with strife taken in or seen as broken, simply living doesn't have to leave scars Sound becomes the same in stereo or a broken radio, songs seem similar when the heart is hollow Reaching for the sky becomes harder when always starting from the floors A witness to our own life should not be a crime, rewrite laws don't focus on our flaws, find happiness not sorrow Make our wrongs alright fogginess can be bright, losing can be winning if not keeping scores Doorman have no faces their lives don't have basis, when we say hello today, we know who they are tomorrow Enclosed doesn't mean closeted, walls never closing in when your mind is expanding, rainbows often following storms Solitary confinement needn't be selfless, alone not necessarily lonesome, never an illness when Peace is our motto Freaky to be friendless when you're friendly, face the world like an endless mirror help heal another by spreading your warmth Death as our final destiny doesn't mean we have to travel dark roads or cross black bridges, enjoy your time on the plaza not hidden in a grotto R.C.

Notes

Was thought have being secluded and my own forced seclusion from being home bound,but then recent isolation with a lot of the world should help many understand better. Thank you for reading your thoughts are helpful. "PEACE TAKES PRACTICE" Rick
