I have lost everything I thought made me, me Torn myself apart in fits of rage Only to be left to try and put the pieces back together But the problem is The pieces never quite fit like they used to And the more I try to force myself to be whole The emptier I feel

Identity
He saw in me what he once held behind his own eyes. A vision of splendour to thy beholder, a prodigy of sorts to be moulded and shaped. I was a blank canvas and he the creator. Don’t you see? This thing you call life, the gift most are granted at birth, was never mine to own. Cursed to never know what it is like to hold power over your own destiny. To be granted the privilege of choice. Instead I am forever bound to a man who declares himself a god. A possession until the day I perish, that is the price I paid.

A black cloud hangs over my head Spanning an entire continent My suffering was too much for them… And it’s too much for me

Suffering
It grew hard to tell what was a skeleton to be buried and a treasure to be revealed

The hopelessness the sadness is a weight that became to heavy for me to carry So I was forced to shed my own substance to make room

Shedding skin
How could you commit ****** but it be called two different things? There was no difference in our actions, only the side of the battlefield we were standing on. I knew the truth though, I always have. I was just like them, a cold-blooded killer. The only difference was the uniform I wore and the man I pledged allegiance to.

War
I lost my life a long time ago because lord knows this isn’t living I gave it away to the hole in my brain to the other me the one who is controlled by irrational thoughts and behaviours And in all honesty I can’t say I miss it I have grown so used to it this state of emptiness of nothingness So much so that I cannot tell if I crave more

Anymore
The blame always did fall on my shoulders no matter the crime. It wasn’t fair but it was my reality, even in this place I was supposed to call home.
