Mind clouding over
Happiness ebbed to despair
Pushed by a need for self hate
Fear of happiness and mirth
Overcoming crumbling defenses
Why do I not care?
Suffering from lack of pain
Loves so obvious
Never could they be missed
Always within grasp
But never attained
Why can I never care?
Shying away from pity
A declination to change
Loathing the attention
Wishing for people to go away
How can I do this to myself
Do I enjoy the dismay?
Furious of every decision
That I force myself to enact
Clearly doing what I do not want
I still convince myself
To uphold my pathetic act.
