A World of Your Imagination

All alone In a world of your own No one around Never any sound Trapped in a box No key to any locks Stuck inside Always against the tide There's no fun Happiness is none Chain links are strung Made by your tongue Held by feelings Your heart stings Stranded in a land of your thoughts As your brain rots From the dangerous poison That comes from within The world crumbles All around, it rumbles The sky is falling The end is calling Darkness raises its hand And strikes down at the land Your mind is breaking The pressure snaking Through from below Seeing you as its foe You can't get away Though you try straightaway But darkness grabs you And blocks your world view Keeping you inside forever A slave to your mind until never Written on June 20, 2020
