Echoes of rejection skip the beats of my heart Negative thoughts attach to my reasoning like swarms of unrelenting gnats as I drown in the swell of unworthiness I am blinded by severe self judgement Covered in the monotony of shame I cower on feeble hands and skinned knees trapped in my own prison of nauseating filth I succumb to the assumptions of your silence weighed down by bricks of uncertainty My breathing ever so shallow as I choke on the asphyxiation of despair Longing for the communion of acceptance but unwilling to beg for your approval I suffer in the abyss of formless chaos Projecting desperation onto a mirror with no reflection

formless chaos
Echoes of rejection skip the beats of my heart Negative thoughts attach to my reasoning like swarms of unrelenting gnats as I drown in the swell of unworthiness I am blinded by severe self judgement Covered in the monotony of shame I cower on feeble hands and skinned knees trapped in my own prison of nauseating filth I succumb to the assumptions of your silence weighed down by bricks of uncertainty My breathing ever so shallow as I choke on the asphyxiation of despair Longing for the communion of acceptance but unwilling to beg for your approval I suffer in the abyss of formless chaos Projecting desperation onto a mirror with no reflection
