Redefined

Personality undefined
I’m lost in a place seldom seen
I’m falling for all the signs
“You need to polish your mirror clean”

Personality is a lie
I do whatever I can to speak
All this fear of falling through time
Will being alone only make me weak?

Running deeper into this death
I’m testing solely to help me know
That whatever I still have left
I need to know that I’m not alone

Personality in disguise
All that I was and will have been
Underneath and in the rhyme
I finally see that it’s just a dream

Life and death, all the in-betweens
Broken down into who I am
And the nothing of all disease
Transforms into waves and sand

Personality redefined
I am becoming the truth I need
And with patience I see the sign
“Whatever end, only live your dream”
