Hollowed out
Like
A match to a flame
My viscera
Destiny had
Other ideas
One eyes on the prize
Thee others shut
Subjected negligence
Begging for relief
Buying a oneway ticket
Bursting colors
Like a pinwheel
Motions in the shadows
Shaped my shores
Clinging to me
Plucking me over
Like a bad habit
It only intimidated
The stronger it became
Pushing and pulling me
Tug of war
The hurt locker
Took it’s toll  
Like clockwork why couldn’t
Time just stand still
Thee abyss
Forged me in it’s venom
Slowly stripped my sanity
And rained on my parade
Unlike me my discombobulated circuit board overloaded
And had me asking
Who the hell was I anyway
