Stalking in the background,
For all the world to see
The burning stares that penetrate,
This insecurity
The maddening of the silence,
As I try to find myself
Exposed and naked in this place,
My heart upon the shelf
Shallow words of comfort,
Echo in my ears
From those who have no knowledge,
Or understanding of the fears
Could it be that I am broken,
In a state of disrepair?
Or the start of another season
Where regrets will fill the air?
Hanging in the balance,
Just beyond this wall
Is the peace and comfort that I’d known,
Before that fated fall
Introspection offers up,
Another chance to dream
To see the world through unstained eyes,
Where things are what they seem
And in the wake of clarity,
I can see so perfectly
The void that makes me who I am
And all I’ll never be
