Tailor of happenstance

Be wary
The tender eye
Focussing on endurance  
Seeing how long they can handle
the fester  
of childhood
The tailor  
of  
happenstance
The creator
of a  
moulded heir
Inheriting pain
and numbness
Walking around  
with  
a feral mask
Masquerading  
Complying
Absorbing the cost
Justified in peril
Faking resilience  
to bind
the leathered skin
Hardened soul
Unfurnished
Fading echoes  
within the mind
Intertwined  
A feign creation
