Your ghost holds me close as I'm ravaged by the solitary that surrounds my former home.
Use me until you've spent the rest of my remains, then try to validate your actions.

Cursing every empty vein that used to be inhabited by your impression.
Paralyze me to ensure I
have no chance of knowing the feeling of affection.
It's no secret that I've shed the common decency that appoints the world with the burden of devotion to our kin.
I gave you everything I had and the world has left me exhausted.
Make me feel something, anything that
might change my mind.
As worthless as I am, I know that I still serve a purpose.
To leech off the light and absolve my insignificance.
Lay me to rest inside of a glass casket so you can remember me with a smile on my face.
Adorning me in my own failures so you can bless
them as you stand above my bones.
I wish I were a better man.
I am a coward masked in courage and just admitting it will not save me this time.
Free me from my tired mind and let me learn the difference between a single tear and the runoff of an ocean.
Weak and weary
from my predatory nature.
Bless me with abandonment in my greatest time of need.
Let me carry on knowing I can never truly face my reflection.
It's much easier to caress the broken glass.
Though if I accidentally catch a glimpse of myself in the shards, I will put faith
in the shrapnel to correct my vision.
I am a stranger when I stare into the eyes of those I love.
Look away in disgust, protect yourself from the sound of my deception.
