A misfit design

The Outcast

By Irvin Published about a year ago 1 min read

Consider me your least favorite clothing item worn out in your wardrobe
The only time you put me on is when you create a facade of lost hope
Drenched with darkness from your mind for how you think of me
My eyes a window to my soul
The silence liberates the atmosphere for we cannot afford to wake up demons we've put to bed
The clock on the wall rotates Anti-clockwise, because we live reality in the past
Unforseen sequential patterns of thought occur, reshaping the perceptions we have of ourselves within
We start to view ourselves from a third person perspective, for how we tell a narrative without the inclusion of our faults
Persueing the masses to our favored judgement
How was the end become a plot with us starring as guest characters
Every memory of us like a fatal accident, certainly has led to the death of my heart
Wandering the after-life of a love vendetta
More souls seem lost in a villainous conscious
Being led by pain, their context of grieve highlights a file line of dying sane
Living the present moment only to have an alterior motive to being absent in our past-scripted dialogues
So identical in bondage of our minds it feels like this pain was self-inflicted
I am my own mirror victim
An author of a story with words I trail down to the depths our their convention
The very same words I've said to you containing empty spaces of completion

    The way you navigate themes of pain, introspection, and self-awareness is both poignant and thought-provoking, inviting us to reflect on their own inner battles and narratives, excellent work, love it, subscribed.
