I'm living in a shattered wolrd. Where everything is distorted and confused. Like broken glass, It will never be the same. It shall never be the safe haven it once was. And it's starting To take it's toll on me. I'm holding a single dying rose As I take off this smiling mask, And reveal the hidden tears, That I've kept so seretely. The words still echoing through my head, Back and forth they race between my thoughts. I've built my fortress all around me, And now there's no one... Left to break me... "I'm tired of being what you want me to be."~Linkin Park |

Yes. I agree. This was touching and very real. It's scary taking down those walls. Hope all goes well. Well done.. |

Ah...no one left to break you. How insightful. So we build again, we become stronger, taller, straighter, leaner, even...nicer... and with that power comes wisdom. You are on the cusp of knowledge. Your cup is about to overflow... sip well, and often... |
