On Your Mind

I know your thoughts I know how you are Going to answer me Before you even Say a word I know which demons Are tormenting you today I know when your soul Screams for vengeance And when it is crying Lonely tears of sorrow I understand you More than you realize I think I have a better Understanding of what Drives your actions Than most do Sometimes I even Think that in ways I understand you better Than you do yourself Because I can see what You are unable to Your motives through An objective cornea I carry your pain With me everywhere That I travel Like it is my own I feel my body shaking Sweat dripping down My terrified face For I tremble in fright From the claustrophobic Sensations that I feel From being trapped In this haunting abyss Suffering in silence Right by your side Darkness preventing You from sensing My loving presence When I touch you I feel the chill Of solid ice Seperating us Come closer My love for If only I could Give you a Warm embrace I could melt away The frosty surface That prevents me From reaching you And then finally I can rescue you From your captors From yourself From everything That you are Running from As long as I Breathe I will Fight for your Release from The prison in Which your Heart is locked Away from me And where your Mind is chained To yesterdays Agonizing torments
