i looked to my left br a vast nothingnes befell br to my right behold br are walls too cold from lack of touch br above the sun is shining br but with whom am i to rejoice br come rain come sunshine br tugged in a blanket or a pool alone br are all i've ever known br mom and dad are all long gone br both to work to come at dawn br friends and foe outside the wall stand br and gaze at my home of vast emptiness br a place that all is never therebr br hamid kareembr br
