vanity…

I walk in depths of laughter

Every standpoint was clichéd

Every angle

Could you tell me? Make me understand…

Why in the presence of light

You veil your self

Under mine

Red… gray

Jealousy is ancient

Antiquated by this endless rivalry

Chivalry? Bravery?

I see a clown

Make ups… make it up

Smudges, Masquerade

Drained by strokes of nails

Of your own doing

Insecurities… still…

Pity.

Have my glasses on

And I’ll cry your heart out

Butterflies on a grave of betrayal

And you, still lying there

Move out, move on

It’s been so long…

emulation once forged

addiction, obsession, me

hatred in those words

shooting flames now are you?

truth was never your craving

pretensions, retreat

PAIN makes people smile?

am I still causing it?

PITY…

    Misundestood, am I not?
    Because when the Easterly wind unleashed its mighty gust,
    I set my sail and stubbornly headed West.

    Challenging the bearing.

    Foolish,am I not?
    Because when the overall psyche dictates survival,
    I signed for submission.

    Completely.

    Idiosyncrasy,is it not?
    Well…

    The foundation of my logic is not designed to falsify the norms but rather to substantiate it further.

    For when I do, therefore I am.
    And if I don’t, then…
    Vanity thrives.
