Message from God

So, I now remember this time
when god stopped by
to tell me about my life

I was just a kid
but I remember
clearly now

God told me that I'd always be alone
it wasn't a threat but head's up
"set your will in concrete"

Born alone
self-reliant but too far inside the mind
questions of self and the merits of others

Live alone
gifts received and taken away
to embrace the moments of bliss

Die alone
leaving behind traces hints & glimpses
pulling and tearing at vital organs

A curse and a blessing
Reality is just the way it is
nothing really special, said god
