Reality Bites

I am sinking
Into the abysmal void
For I find no escape
From the clutches of hardship

Little by little
My spirit slips away
For I am exhausted
With the never-ending twists and turns

I find no rest here
This is killing me
I wish for this masquerade
To close down its curtains

I shun this façade I wear
I have nary a care anymore
To the dismayed authorities
And the audience of hypocrites

No chains of yours
Can hold me down in hell again
No taunting about your lips
Can suppress my struggling soul once more

I cherish now the life
I had always wanted to live
This is the real me
And there’s no turning back
