Wellspring




Stalwart in appearance  

Turbulent undercurrents fashioned like a noose

Heaving the abuse

Weighing down confidence

Looking to the past through the mirror

Into this child's eyes

No understanding then of the what or why

But now stands a broken man

Who fully fucking understands...


...Once it creeps it's way in

It never fucking leaves

It appeals to my self-destructive nature

And it's a part of me I wish I could sever

The part of me I hate whole

No longer just the lingering shadow...


...So this is what I am

and this is who you've made

Molded by your hands, your fists

Shattered by your rage

Now consumed by my own
