The storm has finally stopped
And we step out of the shadows to see whats left
And there is nothing left
The curving of my spine and my muted mouth
And these deathless ears seem to please them more
I remember when people thought i was quite and shy
Oh he's jus quite,
they used to say, shy
Non threatening and likable
I hated that person but others liked him more
I guess he was unoffensive and placatory
I dont know who to be
The quiet me got ill and nearly died out of greif of how pathetic this fleshed vessel was
I guess ill trek back into the shadowlands i once inhabited
that half-life
Put on again that tormenting mask
I put it on
and the pins push into my eyes
and the gag slips down my jugular
and chokes at my throat
But people will like me again
and i wont be
lonely
I hide my true self
and present one which people
understand
Its a shame no one likes that person
Or i cant find anyone that does.
He could have done great things.....
