disguised

tumbling words spilled onto a canvas

dripping down from a crack in my head

a fractured mentality producing a scattered story

an image of someone

someone looking for something in the dark

someone who dissolves beyond the superficial

someone whose reality shifts in the mirror of another’s gaze

someone who’s too familiar with pretending and who can’t recognize themselves anymore

what is this, you ask me?
this is as close to me as it gets
