Illusory Valentine

Trapped in the cul-de-sac
of self I would have had
to end myself is that
the emergency I’ve arrested
or who am I living for
pretending death absolves me
from the sin of life alone
when only a further aloneness
waits at the end of alone
my death would be inconclusive
if I’ve not died to myself
not thought through death to see
there is no life alone
no more than death can be
