Happily Broken

Internal Projection Of Pain

By Irvin Published about a year ago 1 min read

Masqueraded eye's, like a blind-fold, how you perceive yourself through this daunting darkness

Seems to keep the wilderness vain of each attempt of survival;

Encapsulated.

A portrait of truth contextualizes a crafted mask, meant to keep away shadows that wander the empty spaces of a scattered mind.

The loss of truth and identity in oneself, feeling lost and abondened like a strayed animal seeking its collective group clan.

The uncertainty of which path leads to my greatest strengths, in contrary can be of my greatest weaknesses.

How I crave the scent of Being alive, I find myself with unrooted flower's, who have only bloomed to departure this life of agony.

Feeling stuck in a state of unpredictable circumstances - Corced by fears, that deepen the wound of Trauma.

I'm entitled to this pain being inflicted on me.

Like a contract between both parties, my soul signature is the trademark recognition that keeps us intact.

I count each day that comes to remind myself of the life-long journey I'm yet to endure.

However my heart bares witness to the pain I keep engraved, in a valley of wounded words that keep recitating themselves under a half-bled moonsault.

I am just another traveller lost in the mists of a journey, I'm yet to emabrk on.

    So deep and, in a sense, quite dark. Very nice :)
