5d
Decades flew building self reliance;
My solitude was always my defiance.

Loyalty is not the default nature of humans;
It makes you shudder with how easily people can betray you.

And you wait, you wait endlessly in your cave;
For that one person whose value system can be as impeccable as yours.

Hoping that the epitaph will not read: that wait may turn out to be futile.

Misfit, forever; in a world devoid of integrity.
Solitary traveller of life.
