A Fractured Soul
In the depths of my being, a war rages on
A battle between light and darkness, never won
A fragile balance, a delicate dance
Between the shards of my soul, a precarious prance
One day, I'll surrender to the chaos around
Let the fragments of me shatter, without a sound
I'll cease to float, to fight, to hold on tight
And let the darkness consume, the last remnants of light
The cracks within me, they spread and they grow
A fractured soul, a heart that's lost its glow
I'll stop pretending, stop holding on to hope
A fleeting dream, a whispered promise, a distant scope
Perhaps one day, I'll vanish, like a whisper in the wind
A memory, a shadow, a ghost left behind
No more struggles, no more pain
Just an eerie silence, an endless, hollow plain
But until that day, I'll hold on to the threads
Of a life unraveled, a soul that's lost its dreads
And though the darkness closes in, I'll find a way
To keep the light flickering, come what may.
