"Solitude's Grip" by Max PhineasI always end up sitting alone
Though surrounded by people,
I talk to no one
Solitude grasps me in its horrible shell
I try to break free, but my attempts tend to fail
Maybe it is meant to be this way
Perhaps I am supposed to live life on my own
But somehow I feel as though Im missing out
On a friendship, a bond, with another person
In time I will see if I ever become
A friend to someone in need of a friend
Or a companion to someone in need of a talk
Or if I will remain all alone in the end
