21 in 2
21 in 2..
1 more milestone I feel I shouldn't of gotten to...
As life showed its ugly side.
I confide in my ability to reside in truth
That truth... so clear... so plain....
Contemplating insane circumstances.
By far...given more than my share of 2nd chances
To make amends for my misteps.
The feeling of nothing fills me.
No emotion from a heart
Frost-bitten cold.
Iced veins send chilled blood throughout..
Without a doubt.
Supplying me with the substance of a living corpse.
Alive to all.
But dead to myself.
