He lied so casually; Such little meaning in such big statements. When he said “I love you”, did he ever truly mean it? Has he ever meant anything? Was his whole being merely a facade? Chasing the answers; Does he ever truly wish to find them? He finds depressive thoughts comforting; So lost in self-pity, he loves to feel sadness. Something to hold deep within. He bleeds words onto paper, too afraid to bleed in the open; An ever-spiraling cycle. He knows his demons are many; He knows his demons are self-made. Depression grips him, as depression is relief. Is the world even real when his thoughts are so inward and selfish? Lost. Lost. Lost. Do I want to be found? Do I want to find myself? I think not; I fear I am not the person I would like to be. When did he turn into me? How did this happen?

The lines between fantasy and reality are so blurred. Paenitentia.
