Wallowing in self-hatred
I am nothing therefore deserve nothing
Longing for an escape
Incarcerated in my own thoughts, there’s only one option

Appearing as a coherent individual
I masquerade myself about, attempting to veil the true monster underneath
I fear for my safety, not with others, but with myself
The veil is becoming more transparent
How can I live, when hatred, depression and obscurity are the shadows that follow me

Exhaustion of the mind and body
I can no longer bare to live
Exhaustion that no one can truly comprehend
I am nothing, therefore deserve nothing
