Am I Managing

Somewhere deep inside myselfA voice began to mutterEven though you try and tryThere will be those who are better Sin became my biggest fearAnd also, my daily companionI tried to leave it far behindBut I wore it like the highest fashion They said I needed to controlAll the things that made me badOr hide them

“There never can be a man so lost as one who is lost in the vast and intricate corridors of his own lonely mind, where none may reach and none may save.” – Isaac Asimov Cycle 43: The aloneness on the spacecraft sometimes is overwhelming. I find myself talking to no one just to remember
