The Heart's Internal Death

My soul lives, but my heart has died Societal norms and morals I no longer abide I cast almost all of my humanity aside to have my inner maverick flow inside The only human I can believe in is me In doing this, I am now free By no longer caring what others think, it is impossible for me to shrink My soul is almost hollow of emotion but as I intended, this would be a powerful promotion No matter what corruption society throws at me in ways venally, nobody can stop me spiritually and mentally Emotional pain, now nearly impossible for me to feel as well as from others, I'm busy using affirmations to refine my steel Most of life is a lie, so I refuse to be grateful I am blissful with what I have, though I'm almost completely hateful My fight with the world, mentally and spiritually, is eternal After much practice with my talents, I shall record victories in a journal Forever like this, I shall stay true because I will say once more that most of life is untrue

I shall under no circumstances, ever, quit poetry. I will never quit poetry in any way, at any time, for any reason.
