Tapping on the glass

Cold fingers tap at the pane of glass

smudges tear across the surface

he thinks that someone will hear him through the glass

he thinks this cold slab can bring him joy

when he is actually slipping

further

and further 

away

losing touch with reality

all for a bit of fun.

It's all entertainment until you lose your soul,

until there's nothing left to give.

Tap, tap, tap.

He taps on the glass, but no one hears him.

When will he understand that they never will?
