One life changed through a meeting
Transforming, turning of socialness
Here lies the river, a rapid river
Sweeping him in rapid turns
Abrubtly does it stop and churns him
Over the waterfall of sickening phobia
Fear of isolation graps his heart
One lad dead, in a pool of blood
Another left in utter lone
Yet one more lies crushed in death
Walks away his closest lover
One life changed, a meek life changed
Thrust into a life of anotherness
Tangling, mingling, connecting
A vine chocked by others
Transformed, turned, swept away
