Self-Evaluation

I am blinded by these...tears i'm crying 
Binded by pain...and i can't hide from this 
I am see-through...see my sin sick soul 
If you peeped through my peepers... 
or see how i'm cracked deep down at the seams; 
it seems the threads of me keeps unravelling 
And i'm traveling deeper to a place...where cold creeps 
I'm reaping what has been sewn into me 
This shell, you see, is a fallacy 
It's a sheet that shields the best of me 
I feed off-of your energy...to better me 
I'm best suited by booting your confidence... 
control-alt-delete 
Although i seem to be well put together... 
I'm actually incomplete 
I cannot hide from this...I cannot hide from me 
But i run from sleep...I run from my dreams 
And these tears that seep...won't seem to let me be 
They won't grant me peace...so i must recollect; 
the pieces of me that are kissed with beauty 
And the depth that makes me so true... 
And these tears that blurs my reflection; 
I'm so glad i dont look like;
