The Wall... Crystalized tears forming an ineffective shield around the heart. Shielding nothing, as thoughts & feelings intrude, testing the membrane of sanity. Sure in the knowledge that romance is a farce only found in fiction. The emptiness cuts into the soul & mingles with self-loathing & cynicism. Depression sinks deep, impenitrable by the sunshine in the fake smiles. The darkness is insistent, sucking at the soul & gaining no sustenance. Longing - the constant companion of a fantasy-infested brain. Maggots of mimickry mucking up the mind, chittering with malice. ... Best not to ask about that one. 8*)
