The debris


Devastated enough to fall
With a fortune to trudge
The mask has a mirror within 
That reflects the debris left behind 
Disowned and abandoned in the past
The ruined parts of desecrated self
Those I believed were invisible 
Concealed with my oversized shadows
But truth bursts through pretence 
Gushes out from feeble cracks
Rocks the stable ground with fury
Suddenly the world crumbles 
The reigning monarch kneels
The palace is lost amidst fading glitter
There is  nowhere to hide , nowhere to go
Once the pride of being myself corrodes.
