Unloved And Alone
Most of my life there were others around;

The First Mate Of My Soul
I would like to think of myself as a sage;
but a sage, I could never be;
sometimes I struggle, to even engage;
my thoughts are what I see.
Vision is not what we see with our eyes;
all our thoughts are world’s
Trees Of Life
I feel very much like a Sycamore tree;
