Tears of August...

Tears of August are slantingly sliding
down the window. I’m bored and lonely.
If only the radio said something exciting
I’d get up out of bed, if only
there was a reason, a purpose for breathing.
I’d find my vocation in something important
I’m not here for breeding!
Why else? I don’t know, thus I’m dormant,
uncaring. I’m a just leftover of my social
milieu,-- a by-product of my generation,
but there’s no reason to get emotional--
there’s always an outlet- imagination.
I spend my best years devising affection.
Just swallow a glass and he’s flying!
Who’s he? ... no, not I... my reflection.
All the while I’m over here... dying.

This is very sad, Master. Very well written.

Thank you Denise, I don't know what came over me... I'm not really that depressed!
