Gazing through the liminal windows Only to find what I already hold so dearly Fronting smiles for a quick benefit As my stone-set complexion wanes wearily And, my Humanity animates this miserable repose Into a shameless portrayal of diminished whit And, all of these unsent letters forming disappointment Remind me that this sickly apathy could have been avoided I saw the torment approaching from behind every grin- Connecting my reality to this life I've been appointed A continuation of actuality so meek and despondent Vaguely showcasing the sensations of the sublimity within How can the objective see all this self absorption? When we're looking through a constant one way mirage A reflective outlook from one of the searching minds Fixated on all the shells of this social entourage Pondering the inner entanglement of their sad misfortunes leaving nothing but questions with no answers to find Impossible as it seems to depict the substance of perception These literal creations we compose must amount to something Or at least comfort us with a contorted definition of self Without this written word - would I be left with nothing? Can I bare to see myself forgotten as a faint misconception? Should I clot the thread of memory with a part of myself?

I'll Never Get This Right
Gazing through the liminal windows Only to find what I already hold so dearly Fronting smiles for a quick benefit As my stone-set complexion wanes wearily And, my Humanity animates this miserable repose Into a shameless portrayal of diminished whit And, all of these unsent letters forming disappointment Remind me that this sickly apathy could have been avoided I saw the torment approaching from behind every grin- Connecting my reality to this life I've been appointed A continuation of actuality so meek and despondent Vaguely showcasing the sensations of the sublimity within How can the objective see all this self absorption? When we're looking through a constant one way mirage A reflective outlook from one of the searching minds Fixated on all the shells of this social entourage Pondering the inner entanglement of their sad misfortunes leaving nothing but questions with no answers to find Impossible as it seems to depict the substance of perception These literal creations we compose must amount to something Or at least comfort us with a contorted definition of self Without this written word - would I be left with nothing? Can I bare to see myself forgotten as a faint misconception? Should I clot the thread of memory with a part of myself?
