I hate to fear myself
And when I try to express
My thoughts get suppressed, and that’s
When failure mocks success
I hate talking to myself
And when I do, expecting sanity,
The sad void feels supreme
Pushing the mental sickness to the extremes
Crawling alone to get past the unknown insanity
Only to reach a chaotic heaven
Sprinting through to cross the finish line
Only to leave the heavenly reality behind
Binding yourself to all the perfect delusion
Only to unlearn and unwind the false makeshift
For you are one, only one, and always…..
