General feelings of regret <br />Fill all points of view <br />The first, second, and third <br />Till all points directed toward you <br /> <br />Now I sit upon the sandy beach <br />And watch the waves wisp by <br />As the albatross calls my name <br />Like a baby I start to cry <br /> <br />This sense of introvertedness <br />I can keep it to myself <br />Like books in a library <br />I organize thoughts in a shelf <br /> <br />Now I am in need <br />Of an instance of reconciliation <br />Before the day pass by <br />In this beautifully free nation <br /> <br />I am alone in the dark <br />Sitting on the floor <br />With a knife in my hand <br />No, I won't, no more <br /> <br />No more will I give in <br />To his persuasive speech <br />I cast him out in light's name <br />With fire, I burn the leech <br /> <br />Goodbye, world <br />I am flying with the birds <br />Do not point, do not shout <br />Please, not a single word<br /><br />Pete Rivera<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/introvert-5/
