1.
He seemed no different from the rest,
just a healthy normal boy.
His mama always did her best
and he was daddy's pride and joy.
2.
He learned to walk and talk on time
but never cared much to be held.
And steadily he would decline
into his solitary shell.
Pre1
As a boy, he was considered somewhat odd.
Kept to himself most of the time.
He would daydream in and out of his own world,
but in every other way, he was fine.
Ref1
He's a Monday morning lunatic disturbed from time to time.
Lost within himself in his solitary shell.
Temporary catatonic, madman on occasion,
when will he break out of his solitary shell?

3.
He struggled to get through his day,
he was helplessly behind.
He poured himself onto the page
writing for hours at a time.
Pre2
As a man, he was a danger to himself.
Fearful and sad most of the time.
He was drifting in and out of sanity,
but in every other way, he was fine.
Ref2
He's a Monday morning lunatic disturbed from time to time.
Lost within himself in his solitary shell.
A momentary maniac with casual delusions.
When will he be let out of his solitary shell?
