The Recluse

Hey! I've been sleepwalking;
sleepwalking through life!
Had tunnel vision! Never noticed,
the path curved to the side!

Was in a fog...
but the fog was so concise!
Still, led me down a path
of compromise!

It was easy for so long,
just going with the flow.
I used to fight...but I got too tired...
and so, I just let go!

I said goodbye to everyone
and entered in the hall.
Now, a corridor surrounds me.
I feel so lonely...and so small.

Why did I feel so see-through?
Like everyone had knives,
to mirror my corrosion...
and take stabs, at all my dives!

Why did the distortion,
seem like the absolute?
Too many words, misapplied
and judgements, hiding truth!

Am I forgotten?
Your love feels so aloof!
An expanse, between us,
camouflaging proof!

Though, I feel the darkness,
a flicker, I can see!
So, I'll seek you out!
Sift the lies, right out of me!

Now, parts of me are waking up,
remembering, who I was.
Why was it so easy,
to slip into the fuzz?
