State of denial
Where everything vile
Still looks so perfect
Still looks sterile
Patterns in life
Repeat and always cheat
No lessons learnt
I got to retreat
There is just no hope
No friends and no plans
My life has changed much
Alone stranded on an island
Why do I reach out
Despite all this I have seen
A small spark of expectation
Wants to believe in unseen
