Independence

 

I am a lonely giant

Independent and self-reliant

I can tolerate noise, but I enjoy my silence

I’m just in the world trying to find that perfect balance

 

Enter into my mind

And see the books of poetry, the photographs, and the love of science

Travel to my soul

Attempt my road, walk over the hot coals

Reach my center of warmth

Only to be engulfed by the cold.

it seems you have a tight grip on who you are. i like the word "giant" it reminded me of jack and the beanstalk, but yours was in a completely different context. the title, INDEPENDNACE, pulled me in. nice title. thanks for sharing
