Float On

January 1, 2016

Move through a room filled with companions

Acknowledged but unknown

Holding it in, the champion

Eaten alive on the inside,consumed in thought and over-thought

Drift through life, a drone controlled by a clone

A shell of what I really am

Lost myself with no way to atone

A shell of myself, the facade is bought

Self expression and acclimation are what is truly sought
