Solo

Solo,
so low,
did you never mean to find a place for your heart,
a place for your heart to be at home,
because you always seemingly stand in the rain,
and in the snow and in the sun alone,
and you,
you rarely smile and you seem to have no feelings at all,
and you seem numb to all the feelings that are known,
that are known to humanity,
and from which you always seemingly run,
for you are like the wind,
ever changing and fluctuating,
and on a path to what and where I do not know,
yes, you with your blank face and your empty expression,
you walk through town like a tumbleweed that is blowing,
blowing through town with barely a sound,
and no, I have never seen someone so immune to joy,
but you seem to ignore it all,
and like a robot,
automatically you do what you have to do,
and you keep away,
away from everyone that could bring joy to you,
or so it seems.
but what great tragedy has caused you to be this way,
I do not know,
and I will not hazard a guess in case I offend you,
so, I cannot say, but I find it hard to see,
someone so blank and expressionless and apparently empty,
empty of all feelings known to humanity,
and although I see you as a sad clown,
maybe you are really happy,
and live in an alternate reality to what I see,
but I hate to see such emptiness,
and someone so devoid of cheerfulness,
and it is an anathema to me,
and to me, life should be celebrated,
but unfortunately, life is not as easy as it should be,
and I understand in a way,
when you walk through town with barely a sound,
a mystery to me,
and that is the way you like it,
and that is right for you,
and you like to keep your own privacy,
and I do not blame you,
because we have our own privacy invaded,
so many times, in life these days,
so, actually please forgive me,
for you are you, and me, I am me,
and I will never know you,
and you will never know me,
and we, to each other will always be mysteries,
existing far from each other,
and the masters of our own happiness and destinies,
and maybe you will always look miserable to me,
but it is not my business,
but I hope inside you are happy,
and reality, oh, how differently we can view it,
and how different it can be, and how fixed we can be
viewing life through the lens of our own minds,
and through the conditioning of ourselves,
how wrong sometimes we can be.
