Why do we humans always end up feeling

Alone?

Except for the fortunate ones who truly find

Mates

For my entire life

I’ve been attempting to embrace this

Aloneness

Yet break free of it

Now I’ve hit a brick wall

Living in the unhappy home with the unhappy

Man, often unhappy

It’s difficult to maintain, the push

Forward motion

Magic Magic Magic

Why are you no longer allowed?

Admittedly, I like the modern

Conveniences

But all of this convenience gets in the way

Of real experience

Because embracing pop culture

As a way of feeling connected

Even if I assign meaning

has no depth, provides no

Satisfaction
