Torrents
Finally, Alone in a house
There's a calm before the storm

Excited that I am free
Free to do what I want

Elated to be alone at last
I start with the obvious

first thing that comes to mind
And No one to stop me now

I won't be bogged down but
Suddenly this thought creeps out

What is it that I really want
What is it that I truly wish

For this is my chance
To do everything that I want

Yet I am stuck here n now
With this paralyzing thought

Swirling in my mind
Looking for that splinter of mine
That wants things to be grand

Deep diving in my past
Digging up an ambitious brat
Buried and lost to time

he wanted to be happy
he wished to be loved

he needed to be triumphant
he had to be perfect

Was that too much to ask
For I am sans everything I want

Failure loneliness despair around
Sadness and fear gripping me now

Me beside a torrent of feelings
And even by myself I am not alone now
