isolation is a solitary place
distress with inner torment

attempting to sort yourself out
looking for contentment
trying to conceive what love is

isolation can be a snare set on ones own
then you turn around and stumble into it

falling into patterns which are nonproductive
call it bad judgement or miscommunication
someone falling through the cracks

isolation can lead one towards depression
using all of ones insecurities

overanalyzing each and every insignificant instance
lacking guidance and support even motivation
though this remains and only creates confusion

isolation is a place in the heart and soul
somewhere empty, without personality
a cool damp shadowed respite somewhere
deeply rooted in fear and pride
compelling one to question themselves

isolation can be conquered by exposure
figuring out inside what keeps success on the outside
taking a long hard look at your inner map
deciding whether to discard the old
or just alter your perception of reality

isolation in essence a regrettable conclusion
