I'll Never See The Me You See

Iโ€™ll never see the me you see
Beauty and graceย 
Simple words that leave me with a bitter tasteย 
Fractured and flawedย 
Devastatingly depraved from the world around me
But you stay
Unafraid of my dangerous mind
The poison that leaks through the cracks that I hide
Cover the holesย 
The scarsย 
And bruises
Stuck in a state of limbo
And still you wait
Never wavering from your post
Guarding and protecting this lifeless ghost
The grains of sand that fall
Quicksand to my heart
Slowly wasting breathsย 
Unapologetically insane
This disease killing the cure
Running from the masses
Hysteria heightened with each will to live
Cutting down my progress
Slowly
I sink back into my hole
Solitude excludedย 
as they poke and prod
Manifesting fears that were never there
This constant state of despairย 
And still you wait
