LCL (I need you)


I saw the sea of my creation,
the expiration and madness strewn about.
while the souls of my kin long for
the burden's lifting from inanity.
 
"i wish everyone would just die!"
(i struggled with my reason
until it became me convoluted)
I was so unknowing, ignorant.
All i ever needed was the feel,
the touch, the wise compassion.
 
Another's understanding came
yet i was not prepared for this.
Eventually I sobbed
in realization that I was worthy
of my existence...
