Break Free

Self struggling with self trying hard to break free
Liquid mind on fire, every smothering day
When will freedom come to whisk me from myself
Need to find the exit, searching through the crevice of
Degenerating mind, seeing a waving portal
Smiling up at me, enticing me to enter
Gullible I went straight into the vacuum
Like a desert traveler, I plunge into a dancing
Stream my reflection I encounter,
Grinning up at me from the depth of mirage 
Deception was the morbid face of Insanity
