The Silencing End of Distractions


What have I done? All that means nothing is gone now and leaves me exposed to realities I cannot handle Realities that lie in my dream world Realities that I've tried to cover with distractions I am a shallow being that covers itself With layers of nothingness so as to appear substantial But I can still smell the bile. I can still feel the guilt keeping me in this world of insanities Where I am alone. What have I done?
