Theme: Society and getting lost
Synopsis: Have you ever felt like losing yourself?
Darkness looking at me, eyeing every move I make,
Soul, flesh, and thoughts— what more will it take?
With these ears discerning who I am,
Why can't I descry myself through this flame?
Restraining myself from these hoaxes and fallacies,
Hiding under the veil of ignorance and idiocy,
Hands reaching me at my place,
Begging me to linger in disgrace.
Scattered ink flowing from my above,
Crawling back into my core— longing for its love,
Sensing a new and unfamiliar trail,
Joining my inner collection of veils.
Standing in the middle of black and dark,
Looking into a shadow that never shows its face and arch,
Here and now, I feel truly unalive and ruined—
I am losing myself in a life full of lies and wounds.
