I'm destroying the things that I love the most
From the inside out,
Without realising i'm causing any damage

Whatsoever.
I'm turning into a man in hiding
From the world,

Without realising the beauty that surrounds our daily routines.

I need to let you flourish,

And become all you can be,
Instead of keeping you locked here with me.


An explosive haze of grey
Is all that I can see.
But you bring colour to my life,

And wonder if you hold the key.

Unlock these chains that weigh me down,

And help me back up off the ground.
Trapped in my own self-loathing state.
