I wake
Day after day I stray further from what I am
All that is left of my mind erodes
From pressure that eats at will for continuance
My soul fades into the gloom

Sinuous repetitions
Seal me in
Despondence manifests as
Pain I cannot evade
So I seal the door away

Restless when I sleep
Tired when I rise
Cannot break the cycle
I've lost the strength to try
Never ending pain
I feel I'm made to suffer

Exponential growth of animosity
Hatred toward my species
I condemn my breed
Internalize
I isolate

On the surface they see what I want them to see
But underneath I will deteriorate

Sinuous repetitions
Seal me in
Despondence manifests as
Pain I cannot evade
So I seal the door away
