This a letter so brief I pen,
I would like to clear this mayhem,
I want to make everything clean,
Let no one cast me any blame.
I know you know me well,
All my aspects, likes and dislikes,
My ways you all know better,
Today a new revelation I make.
Forget the me you knew,
Everything is now changed,
I am no longer the me you knew,
We are now worlds so apart.
I am no longer the smiling machine,
Nothing is funny anymore,
I now glow with pain,
In pain I will grow.
If you see me quiet,
Please interrupt me not,
Allow me have my time,
Ask me no questions at all.
Alone I prefer to be,
Don’t push to be in my space,
Kindly maintain your lane,
On that we won’t cause any traffic.
To Earth’s End.
