Thoughts in Isolation
I'm currently in day 8 of isolation. I stood on my step at dusk and was inspired to write this.
It's optimistic not mournful, I hope.
Trigger warning. ... mention of death.
"Thoughts in Isolation"
Is this what it's like?
Being dead?
The world carries on
Not missing a beat
Barely noticing.
I stand at my door
Observing.
Nobody notices I'm gone
After day one.
Of course, they carry on
As I have often done.
It's eerie
Standing here
Watching the world turn without me
And puts me in my place.
I hope I don't die
But if I do, it's comforting to know
It won't matter much.
