Walking through life
As a shell of who I was.
Molded by my strife
I'm burnt out, because:
I can't remember.
My life spun on a spindle.
All fuel missing an ember.
Every spark without kindle,
I lack control,
Like a Marionette.
A ship without a hull.
An unwinnable bet.
Trying to climb a Mountain,
That is continuing to grow.
I am just a vulnerable man
Overwhelmed by the flow.
A maze without an exit
No one hearing my yells
My story being writ-
ten by someone else:
But I took up my torch
Burning away the webs
Lighting up my path
In hopes of overcoming
My other half.
