I just want to be in solitary,
alone, and free,
inside of me.

Laying down,
my eyes close,
as I hear a sound.
High pitched
and as frivolous
as this life is.

My thoughts conflict.
The pendulum is swinging,
so mesmerizing.
Slowly fading,
fading from this reality.
My mind is blank,
and I feel empty.

this is my suggestion for the 2nd stanza:

Laying down,
my eyes closed
I heard a sound.
High pitched
and frivolous
as what life is.

overall it's a good poem.

I am confused as to what you meant when you wrote "in solitary". Some of the images are good but perhaps extending a little more with that rather than just writing "I feel empty" would be better.
just my opinion of course. xxx
