A/N: Hi this is a really short poem that I wrote in about three minutes, but I thought it was kind of cool, so I posted it! Hope you like it!

Top of the World

Is it so wrong

To need to be needed?

Never knowing love

I am persecuted for holding fast to what I have

To what does not ultimately flee from my grasp

And refusing to relinquish it

My hold is iron

Unforgiving; resolute

Never to let go

And yet I can feel them all slipping away from me

Breaking their eternal chains

They free themselves one by one

Until only I remain

As iron is strong

So it is inflexible

Cannot be loosened

Nor tightened

And so I am forced to watch

I look down at them

From the top of the world

As a cast-off god

And I realize that

I am doomed to die

As I have lived:

Alone
