Don't think. Thinking is the enemy of creativity. It's self conscious, and anything self-conscious is lousy. You can't try to do things. You simply must do things. -Ray Bradbury

Alone is dark
Alone is black and deep blue and dark purple
Swirling into a melancholy blend of
Sadness
Loss
Despair
Alone is what I have
It protects me from
hurting those I would have loved
If I weren't
so
Alone
