[de/re]Construct

The person I am is a paper-mache
of who I was and what I want to be,
a mismatching collage with gaping holes
with materials which never agree.

So I plaster myself with more false hopes
that I can cover up all my mistakes
but the foundations I've built are so flimsy
that the excess I've added never takes.

I serve myself with no real function;
just a poorly constructed DIY,
a prototype that never made production,
a faulty product that no-one will buy.

So go ahead and please tear me apart
because I could surely use a fresh start.
