Sometimes it is worth the introspection to really know one's self.

Grandeur of Truth

Blindly, cravenly, I entreat the shadows to appear
While Whorishly I sit amongst the twisted remains
Of the debauchery of my soul, willing all to come and jeer
I ache, I seethe, to hold again that from which I must refrain

Gratuitously, with spontaneity I am offered a sliver, an insight
Before, I am thrown again, agonizingly back to whence I belong
Love now for me, is bestialized, subverted, my own pitiful respite
Wilfully, longingly, I wonder if I ever can again, be invited along

Spinelessly, a coward’s act, I forsake the reality of who I am
Uncomely, repelling, a visage which can turn a beating heat to stone
Interminable, vapid intellect, defines my inner self, a prosaic sham
Unshackled, burdened, free from the lovers embrace, I face myself alone

My life lives within my own eternity, its forsaken, abhorrent self
Repelling, grotesque, from normal people I hide, I offend by being who I am
