Leaking Performance

Enemy of myself
Tired of false personification
To this point of my performance
Bow out and flee the stage

Blood letting
Past the clotting state
Almost over I can feel it
Said a noose to the neck
Heart weak in pulse
Finally

Failure of performance
Expectations never altered
Torture stage experiment
Bring traumatic back to life
Memories unwillingly described

Blood letting
Past the clotting state
Close your fair blue eyes
Said a needle to the neck
Deep inside myself
Almost dead
Finally

Self-esteem-less marionette
Initiate self-destruct sequence
Hopeless black button chest
Adorns my puppet gown
Walk off exit stage left
Without regret

Blood letting
Past the clotting state
Said a dagger to the wrist
Deep inside myself
Almost dead
Finally

Prance around upon my bed
Under ghost white sheets
Whisper to myself in shadows
Forever closed my fair blue eyes
My own war within withered wrath
Faded out of my own performance
Stepped willing down from the stage
