No, I am NOT a goner,
just back to being a loner.
Rejection being a painful thing,
so now, I reject everything.
No chance will I let this
new pain back in.
I will never allow myself again
to need anyone or anything.
Even my friends are mostly fake
in their charades of give and take.
And the one nice thing
that I can currently count on
is the water in my swimming pool
that relaxes and feels real good.
It muffles the noise
of that ringing cell phone
and has my ears fooled.
