Falling Apart

I feel a sadness so deep it burrows down to the core of who I am A sadness cold, a sadness old Built up over years of denial, A impenetrable wall It has been weakend by the realization of my mistakes Crumbling beneath it's own weight, pushed by the flood of regret it once held back. The moon looks on as everything falls apart Releasing a wave that destroys everything in it's path Broken from the inside Invisible to others As my heart beats slow Deep inside I know That this is a flood of my own making I suffer the chaos And I know I must rebuild the foundation of who I am After the collapse of my dream I lay down the cornerstone of my life. I know that it will stand the test of time.
