Jailed In His Own Skin
In the shade of his smile,
Echoes much depletedness.
In the depths of his eyes,
Is a spectacle of inanition,
In the chaos of his heart,
Lays one true thing, a lie...
His cocoon of titanium,
A grim cage of no opportunity.
Boundaries set,
Letting nobody in.
His deserted being,
Hidden in the shadows.
Reflecting a destroyed boy,
A hollow shell of who he once was.
