My heart
broken by so many princesses
torn out of my chest
stamped upon time and time again

Beaten into submission
a lifeless soul left behind
in hope one day
that one true love will fix me

My manliness belittled
by so many vicious words
leaving invisible marks
upon this wounded frail body

Locked inside this prison cell
my own mind created
to protect me of my true innocence
in this world of cruel hatred

Tears spread like oceans
vast across the world
for that one to swim across
and save me from going under

Drowning in this self pity
loathing of this man I've become
shame of the reflection I see
this Demonic shell left behind

An Angel to cast their light
bring warmth upon this cold frigid carcass
take comfort in their loving arms
soft words of love I long to hear

Till that day I remain
in this burrow I dug for myself
in plain sight
yet hidden from the world around me
