My Fractured Life

About trying to shut people out of your life by hiding away all of your emotions in order to not appear weak

Adrift of all reality
I'm holed up in a world of my own creation
Carving my own heart to spill and empty
Delivering this sorrow unto me

I feel my mind begin the process of a schism
My own little cataclysm

I've built myself out of stolen parts
Because this world is too dark
For my failing heart

I'll use my mirror image
As both shield and blade
I'll deceive even myself
And carve from my world a personal Hell

My own life metamorphosed into a prison
My own little cataclysm

I've built myself out of stolen parts
Because this world is too dark
for my failing heart
I'll question every second of my time
Cause I want out of this fractured life

I know how it feels to conjure up your own wonderland and keep all sorrows within you. It could end up to your own demise if one can't save himself from his own doom. Nice work..

Powerful write.

Wow, this one is honestly good. Don't we all build ourselves out of fractured parts? As we learn lessons and become stronger... just a thought.

It can be a little irritating, sometimes of course because you lose conciousness and control of your our identity.
