The Hermit's Journal entry 3

I forgot the mind shuts down
In a crowd, my voice softens
To a near whisper, and I sit
In silence.  

It's good to be among the living,
Though I sink deeper into
Reclusion each time I step
Outside.  I miss the Suns warmth,
And sand between my toes. 

When will the grief end? 
I left all my friends,
And closed myself up inside...
Hid in books and music,
I don't even know 
Who is president?

Life passes unlived.
