Beneath your armour of blasé
All that pain you carry
Wonder how long you can hide?
The living world and your inner demons
Working hard to expose your jaded face
Under that smiling mask…
But what if you don’t hide it anymore
Let them consume you whole
Would you still be yourself
Or just a shrunken hollow shell…
Your despair loves to thrive on
Bittersweet memories of the past
And pile of your shredded dreams
Do you hear anything they say
Over the silence of your empty screams!?
Its sad that you’ve given up looking for
The love which was once promised
Myth or not, it was but
A reason enough to carry on
Now you question all living souls
Random riddles with no answers
Can’t rest, yet tired to the core
Eyes yearning for something more…
