I tried.

I tried as hard as I could.

Not to drown in this void,

That fills my heart every now and then,

Whenever I think about myself.

I had been a silly little kid,

When I was not touched by agony,

But it was as if thousands of years ago.

I used to be full of spirit,

Before those people made me feel,

That I wasn’t enough to live, to love and to be free.

I snapped, I broke and I suffocated,

In my eternal darkness,

In my lonely little abyss.

I wear masks, vividly euphoric masks,

To conceal this nothingness,

To hide my identity;

Where I was just a human,

Just wanted to breathe and live.
