The Depravity that plagues me so

The Depravity that plagues me so

A Poem by Alexander
"

Writing about the suppressed feelings and desires I harbour as a modern gentleman in a Perilous world

"
Locked in the recesses of my own desires...i lust for exploration, I bleed at the thought of control, at the cringes of etiquette, a little hummingbird in a cage of perpetual captivity...
I desire to unleash, but the hurdles of my dignity obstruct me, great is mine pride that it relinquishes any sprout of liberty.
Ah to what cave shall I crawl to, this burden weighs me down so, an encompassing malignant rain that drenches me when I cache in an umbrella. I cannot weep for I must be strong, I must disdain from attracting cross eyes to my cause, must represent an armor of fortitude and grace. For without this, I would be utterly disclosed.
No cave withstands the roar when I unleash for I cause such a great upset, I become frightened the walls just might give in.
I beseech you to try remotely even to fathom this predicament, what it entertains and such depravity it conceives.
A trial quarrel erupts, words are hurled, blessures are incurred, needless to say, barely a couple of words are all that's required to heal these words, but alas, I would rather watch you walk away than apologise, my pride over-rides my humanity, and so en strangled within is my burning desire to will you back to my side, I'm so sorry my love!
Staring at the mirror, I am bewildered at the sickening sight I dispose, this mask that everyone sees, the bunker in which I have lodged myself within in the hopes of resisting failures and malignancies is now suffocating me! I struggle to untangle myself from this deceptive Web I have spun but I consequently embed deeper, I want to scream; your impressions of me are misplaced! Assemble and acquit with the real me!
This words bounce off and rattle within my thoughts and trachea and I am left in a shadow that rather seals their feelings that I am a long fellow with a massive personality, no one dare cross his path or merge onto his person.
I am abandoned and desolate seeking a sanctuary, Liberate my soul.
