Deeper Level

I can't help but wonder if I am capable of loving another
I spent all my years without the companionship I craved
Wanting nothing more than to feel a flicker of connection
But time has slowly erroded that one desire from my mind
It has made me doubt my very motivations and wonder why
Why did I need another to feel as happy as I wanted to be
What made me think that love would solve everything
Because today I don't seek the compaionship of another
I have gotten used to living life like a cloud on an overcast day
I lack the need or ability to connect on that deeper level
The trust and good faith in my fellow man has died away
Now I see the world in a new hew through cinical eyes
It is the price and consequence of so many years alone
The price
And the consequence
