oh, me

i know i'm a bit unhinged
to be nostalgic
about my personal discord
where vulnerability meets
nonchalance
lost sense of reality
yet it's so real
reminiscent of my
deep, dark corners
my nervous breakdown.
not too long
after I let myself
crumble to pieces
I could start rebuilding
my empire
piece by piece
every little block
intricate, with such uniqueness
despite
the irregularities and incongruence
I would proudly call it my own
thick skin
resting on titanium spine
I am built to last.
