Beneath the Surface

Beneath the surface of my reflection,
are pale illusions of a broken soul,
upon inspection, I see the imperfections
within my heart resides a black hole

From within a vast array of light,
just in sight of my darkened state;
I long to take flight for one night,
I know my fate and it's death that awaits

Beneath the surface are shattered dreams,
from within I scream, haunted by regret,
I fret with guilt over deceptive schemes;
I want to reboot or reset to somehow forget

A future offset and promises never met,
unsure of the future as of yet or my purpose;
my goal is to get to my destiny that’s preset,
within me I see all the lies beneath the surface
