Only Sometimes

sometimes
only sometimes
do i feel the need to run
mostly i am in my cave
watching the world go by
not wishing to participate
and in these moments
i see the world as a giant machine
eating out our hearts and souls
till we are but empty shells
spent
casted aside
adrift
awash in the storm
called life
sometimes
only sometimes
do i feel the need to throw myself in
to surrender to humanity and therefore
to give of my soul
the vampyres feed and look for carrion
i run as fast as i can
back to the safety of my niche
my little piece of space
and there ... through the window
i watch them not comprehending
often totally aware
that i am not like the rest
