Breaking Away

As I struggle through this only life,

Stumbling and falling on bloody knees.

Is my mind broken?

Nights are dark loneliness is cold,

Yet I fear the light my soul exposed,

Secret pain unspoken.

Upon my face this mask I wear,

To armor my glass house from stone.

Tearful eyes swollen.

To see my love in sorrow weep,

My heart cries out but mouth is closed.

Powerless I am frozen.

As distance grows between my cries.

My will exhausted now gone,

A snap and gasp,my sweet goodbye,

Rage has now awoken.

Soul is black

Heart of stone

With hate I boil

Twisted eyes with clenched teeth I smile.

I slip into the dark wicked laughter echo.
