The Cave

If I peek under enough shells

Deep into the core of my soul

I am quite certain to find

Someone meant to be alone


There's a madding world out there

Full of people or lemmings or both

Some jovial, some morose, some comatose

But none who know the same cave as I


Ah, my cave, the abode of my soul

Where there is infinite space for me

But no room for anyone else

I have once again sealed the door


It's dark in here (but so was the womb)

It's cold in here (but so is the outside)

It's lonely in here

But I understand it
