A Broken man

I feel like a fragile shell,
That everyone breaks.
Everyone can tell,
It's something I can't take.

I hate that I screw up..
This is something I can't fake.
And like a glass cup,
I will soon break.

Why am I condemned to this?
Am I to be a mess?
I really just need a kiss,
But I am just someone's stress.

I feel myself slipping farther down,
Into a dark abyss.
I feel like I'm going to drown,
And I won't be missed.

Soon these dark hands will take me,
And I'll be torn.
I will never be free,
And no one will mourn.

Perhaps this is who I am..
Something too dark to change.
I am just a broken man,
Or perhaps I am just deranged...
