Worlds apart
The world seems like a broken mess to me,
Perhaps it is all fine and just inside my head.
Feelings of rejection and that emptiness,
While the world goes on as if nothing is wrong.
Any worth inside fades as each new day begins,
And I wonder why?
The fight to continue ebbs away with each passing day.
Once, I thought I had found someone to help me keep it inside,
But like the sun rises and shines, the darkness eventually comes.
These feelings buried deep inside, even as it becomes harder to do,
The self-loathing pushed out into anger to help me cope.
Otherwise, I would collapse into myself and have nothing left.
A figure from my past comes to me in dreams, leaving me sad and confused.
Waking into this new day, not knowing if I will ever feel something better again.
But time to rise and begin it all again, feed the beasts and become presentable,
That mask of normality that must be shown to all around me.
