The skin I flaunt doesn't feel like my own.
I'm a helpless gecko.
Failing to shed my moulting,
I am left to rot within a shell of myself.
This accumulation of my past,
is unbearably blinding.

Paranoia follows me like a shadow,
shrouding the lights of grace in it's woe.
I want to feel loved,
I want to believe that I am adored,
But I am trapped in an ashen grotto.

I admire the foliage in the spring,
then walk along moist shorelines.
I walk atop the leaves of the fall,
then trace frosted trails in winter.
But this cycle,
everything will change.
This year,
it will be better.
Instead of admiring nature's bounties,
I will cultivate something new.
This year I will move past the shore,
and delve deeper into the waters.
In place of withered leaves,
I will step over my struggles.
Rather than peppering footsteps in the snow,
I will permanently imprint on the world.
