PROMPT INCEPTION - Hard to Shine

Hard to Shine
I feel it again, heavy as lead,
The curtain that separates, my path from the thread.
Dark fabric, a monster's cold embrace,
Loneliness that confines me, in a muffled space.
Through this veil, the world seems blurred,
Voices distant, unspoken words.
Each day a shadow, each laugh a sigh,
Hidden tears that the heart can't deny.
Caught in this web, spun out of fears,
Each silent moment amplifies my tears.
Reaching out through the thickening gloom,
Hoping to find a way to break through soon.
It's the loneliness, my curtain drawn,
On life's stage, a shadow long.
A cold embrace, I can't decline,
Drowns me in silence, hard to breathe, hard to shine.
I silently question, am I the cause?
My steps not taken, my own pause.
My autistic mind, a noise without end,
Hides the emptiness that resides within.
It's the loneliness, my curtain drawn,
On life's stage, a shadow long.
A cold embrace, I can't decline,
Drowns me in silence, hard to breathe, hard to shine.
Who can hear, what I cannot say?
The silent scream, trying to break away.
I sink deeper, in this dark dungeon,
Where loneliness tightens, its secure function.
Caught in this web, spun out of fears,
Each silent moment amplifies my tears.
Reaching out through the thickening gloom,
Hoping to find a way to break through soon.
It's the loneliness, my curtain drawn,
On life's stage, a shadow long.
A cold embrace, I can't decline,
Drowns me in silence, hard to breathe, hard to shine.
Maybe one day, I'll find the key,
That opens the curtains, to a softer day.
Until then, I live among shadows and pain,
Waiting for the moment, to find cure again.
