Masks

Starting to feel the distance come between us.

I love you, i always have, i never stopped, i never will.

A place in my heart you will always have.

Waiting for the fall.

An out stretched hand i could not reach.

Sinking faster and faster into darkness.

Cuts cover his thighs.

Feeling alive as crimson runs down his leg.

Red smears the mirror...

His face beaten down.

Unrecognizable to himself.

Harder to breathe.

Lost inside his mind.

Racing thoughts diluted with drugs.

Stumbling around.

Self-destructive by nature.

Twitching uncontrollably.

Losing time.

Ticking away.

Fading back into the crowd.

Covered up, perfect mask.
