here, I wrote about the solitude I feel sometimes, and how its effects conflict upon me. the "he" of the poem is the same subject as "the Good Freind gone".

Sometimes it's hard to believe that
there's nobody out there,
And I fear that it's true.
Sometimes it's hard to believe that
there's nobody out there,
And I long for its truth.

Sometimes i defocus my eyes,
the out-of-focus images migrate,
Double inverted, superimposed.
Sometimes i defocus my eyes
and with the blurred, wide-perspective,
Without context, i see clearly.

Somedays I wake to that
pleasent feeling that no-one's here.
Somedays I wake to that
soft glow of his presence;
the warm fuzz of his coat.
But he left years ago.
One day I'll not wake,
then, maybe, we'll be free to run again.
