Cold Mind, Cold Heart
Deeper and deeper, my mind goes cold, like a disease, it spreads to my heart, now stone-cold.
Deeper and deeper, my demons rub their hands, belittling me while despairs settles in.
Deeper and deeper, I sink into the chill, feeling old, as my soul is wrapped in despair, cold from misery, encased in stillness.
As they say, a cold mind breeds a cold heart- my blood now frozen, solid as stone, chilled by fear, numbed by careless despair, cold from my anxiety.
Anxiety does jumping jacks within me, keeping me frozen, paralysed by dread, seeping into the crevices of my mind,
Cold mind, cold heart.
