Not all I am
This is not all I am
This crust
This wall I surround myself with
This underrated colourless skin
That reflects none of who I am
This is not all I am
Below the surface storms abound
Light reflects
And fires burn
Because this skin
This is not all I am
I’m a mountain
Strong
Invincible
Unwavering
But this is not all I am
Inside me fires burn
Lava flows
Where blood should be
And ice covers the rest of me
But this is not all I am
This crust
This wall I surround myself with
This underrated colourless skin
That reflects none of who I am
This is not all I am
Below the surface storms abound
Light reflects
And fires burn
Because this skin
This is not all I am
I’m a mountain
Strong
Invincible
Unwavering
But this is not all I am
Inside me fires burn
Lava flows
Where blood should be
And ice covers the rest of me
But this is not all I am
