I am a truly complex soul; so many layers are there.
The outer one is cold and hard, but the one beneath does care.

The next one is a delicate blend of gentleness and love.
But beneath that is a hateful one that negates the one above.

These all rest on an inner shell surrounded by a skin,
that traps a minimal humanity for all the layers within.

But then there is the ultimate center, the final emotional core.
That one’s completely empty; everything is thrown out the door.

So how can any human being grasp the likes of me?
These things all boil and interact with great complexity.

My essence is a subtle mix, my mind a mysterious place.
I am truly unique! Just like everyone else in the human race.
