...........................................................Solitary Child,



confused into belief,
from belief then teased away,
told there's waste in love,
knowledge lies in all,
no secrets lie above,
stayed away,
hid away from love....................................................

Harsh things to tell a child. I read this aloud and it was interesting to do so. Slightly discordant at the last, but that benefited the thoughts you were conveying.

A privation at being's essence. Well considered.
