A Millennium Worth of Despair

 My heart often becoming hollow, every time I take a step

Often trying to survive, yet unable to receive the term “help”

Being stepped, stabbed, impaled, hanged, treated like savage

And it seems, no one apologized for all of that tainted breakage

Mocked like there’s no tomorrow, taking huge doses of sorrow

Unable to let out your own voice, forced to have things to follow

A path taken like a puppet, restrained like a pitiful child in grief

Making the marionette laugh in success, no different from a thief

Locked in isolation, treated like scum ever since you existed

Judgments slamming your corpse, wishing you were perished

All your feelings going numb, ripping all of your moral codes

Dismantling your goodness inside as it violently explodes

They say pain disappears, but in reality, it just leaves a mark

A trusty guide they say, yet making your soul numb and dark

I understand how it does, because here I am, truly sobbing

And I just mask it all professionally, as if it’s just nothing
