***
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
take this to heart, my inner soul:
|
||
|
|
there will never exist a singular thing
|
||
|
|
that will make you feel whole
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
it's tempting, I know, to kneel
|
||
|
|
at the altar of a Spectacle and let them
|
||
|
|
dictate the emotions you must feel,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
the clothes, the countenance, the color schemes,
|
||
|
|
while you wonder why you only
|
||
|
|
feel free in your dreams
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
and it might be a cop-out to
|
||
|
|
proclaim that lasting meaning can
|
||
|
|
only be found within *you*,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
but you know it to be true.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
so while you slave away
|
||
|
|
in vain hopes that others will
|
||
|
|
recognize your pain,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
remember the burn
|
||
|
|
of the midnight hands' call
|
||
|
|
and in your chest let it churn
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
and one day you'll see
|
||
|
|
that their wants are less than your needs
|
||
|
|
and you'll find the courage to leave
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
