Your Darkness Consumes

by @TheRealTatsuya

When one is young, Parents shape their future. Life comes undone Nothing you can suture. One experience after another Your mind sours. The goodness in you, you smother It retreats to a corner and cowers. Left with only darkness Your personality now transforms. Your light is now a carcass And your eyes are filled with storms. The hate inside you boils And comes to a head. Everyone you know, recoils As they fill with dread. You feel like a ronin with nowhere left to turn The walls around you close in This is what you've learned. So do what you can And live your life alone You never had a plan Your entire existence, you've blown.
