as im stuck in the past
i rip through the flesh
into shame i am cast
i purge my insides
for no one to hear
straining my eyelids
to hold back a tear
frozen in perfection
im chilled to the bone
id melt for affection
but prefer to be alone
im trapped inside my thoughts
a prisioner of perception
i gaze into my memories
and hate my own reflection
once dancing around in circles
it seems that i have fallen
im so dizzy with happy endings
reality it seems ive forgotten
i know someday
that ill have to admit
that this childish behavior needs to quit
but for now i think id like to stay
and wish for tomorrow
but hate today
building up this destructive wall
that someday ill climb
and hopefully ill fall

i really like this, the emotion on the surface is good but the underlying acknowledgement of the comfort in pain, or generally feeling sorry for yourself, meanwhile accepting future change is brilliant. its the two sides that got me. nice work.

I like to visit the past in my mind, sometimes I cringe at
the way I handled things, but all in all most have been a happy voyage.
