(Lol, don't even know if this is good since it's been a while since I have wrote a poem. is appreciated greatly. Tw of mentions of skin peeling metaphorically.)

We go swing a pinch of chance

Preventing us from who we be

In all it's a despondent dance

Of what to do and what to seek

Tugging war with a shadow self

Envy, jealousy, greed, money

Walking past the candor out on shelf

Why do I always hunger for something?

The light that shines dissipates

It aches, it aches, my brain and heart

How to deal despair sharp as a blade?

Yelling out in pain

Perhaps if I twist it enough it'll fit the box

The box that was made from the start

Anything to ignore the shelf

The shelf that nobody could ever care for

Not even myself, I, care for

I don't know, I don't know

I'm left disfused

Who am I?

What tune am I meant to use?

I follow the path set by leaders

While the shelf I store gets deeper and deeper

Love is a lie, I look in the mirror

The doom I feared is just getting nearer

Skin tears and breaks

Your mirror breaks

Their eyes tear away

It's something I can't face

Who I am kidding? Who I am?

Exhults of sorrowful joy run

"My" air with a fast pace

The umbra voices of shade getting louder

"My" soles tread to another state

Surely it's meant for another day?
