"Time, the cradle of hope.... Wisdom walks before it, opportunity with it, and repentance behind it: he that has made it his friend will have little to fear from his enemies, but he that has made it his enemy will have little to hope from his friends." ~Charles Caleb Colton

I feel so lonely as the unknown darkness
Eats away at the remnant of my soul.

The lights that keep me alive,
Are fading gradually.

I feel no love,
I feel no true compassion
For the souls I once empathized.
I feel no reason to carry on
Living lively.

I am an uninhabitable man,
Where friendship can no longer grow.

&quot;I say what I want to say and do what I want to do. There&#039;s no in between. People will either love you for it or hate you for it. &quot;
