Corruption

I wrote this one when I was bored.

I wake up everyday, to put on my fake smile

You look at me, and see that I am glad

Keeping up appearances for you is such a trial

All that is happy is gradually riddled with sad

I take delight in the sunshine that you bring

It's not like I intend for my mood to decline

I just want to hold you and take in everything

But my negative emotions begin to stir and combine

Inside of me a confused storm viciously rages

I am slowly getting tempted to surrender to my fears

Demons of the past are released from their cages

I am currently unscathed, but my eyes form tears

I want to leave this darkened reality behind

This strain on us leaves me damaged beyond repair

My fear of losing you is corruption of my mind

Thoughts wander further into a swamp of despair

This blackness inside of me is taking control

I reach out for you, but I am taken away

Corruption replaces you in making me whole

As I live without you for yet another lonely day
