The boisterous conversations in my head

have debilitated me.

Enough of grappling with the purpose of us.

I wallow in the dark, depleted of thought.

Bankrupt for words.

Time to embrace solitude.

And in the stillness the splendours within me

begin to dance again.

(Already this poem is 44 words too long).
