Brick by brick
A wall for defense
Not built around, but on top

A year later
Painful beauty of rock bottom
Back where I started

Bravery
Cowardice
Or simply indifference?

Unmasked advice for the convoluted soul
Everything will be alright in the end
And if it isn’t alright, it isn’t the end

To wish for – an ending?

It was never real
It was never for real
The opposite, too painful:
It ended.
