Glass Walls

Glass Walls

And then the daylight comes and the dark parts

I’m raised from the doldrums but the rough is still stark

Happiness streams with shadows that smirk

I don’t even blink because it’s my mind’s quirk

So steadily on this path I tread

Vulnerability from mental fragility fraught with dread

That the darkness of the abyss will descend again soon

The tugging never ends from the addiction monsoon

My day is filled with cheerful sadness

Never pity me for I face my demons with gladness

Swept aside by the kissing tide that elevates emotions

At least I know them even though I face them with weakness

This flagellation is the valve of the soul

All attacks shred emotions, feelings, and mind

This is the soul made into by me

This is open truth transparent as any human might be
