&quot;There&#039;s your labyrinth of suffering. We are all going. Find your way out of that maze.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Even so, I must admire your skill, you are so gracefully insane&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I am invisible, understand, simply because people refuse to see me.&quot;

Shattered Time
Broken Moments
Nostalgia
Extravagant love, will it cease?
Time will tell
Shell of a man, like a bullet's case, empty and worthless after being shot
An overwrought soul, however, gaunt and starving for meaning and purpose
Skin white, body's warmth dissipated
Crimson at a standstill
Eyes lost of luster
A panoply, an array of memories flashing by in luminous beauty, blinding
Infinite time, it yields, briefly
Such a brief moment that it allows forever to end
and Eternity begins

A project at school I wrote based off the book The Great Gatsby. My teacher wanted me to submit this.

&quot;I say what I want to say and do what I want to do. There&#039;s no in between. People will either love you for it or hate you for it. &quot;
