Disconnect

Sometimes you want to drop to the floor
Rolled up into a ball 
Drowning in a river of tears 
To many emotional  fears
A warrier of time 
You have lost your shield

Your mind goes on and on
When will it subside 
You scream You scream
The walls close upon you
The ceiling falls in
To feel no light

What did you do wrong
You can not feel 
You are nomore
A numbness that drives you
An song with no sound
A mind with no thought

The birds sing 
The sky is still high
The ground is still dust
But a life that is just
But not for you and I

A deceiver in disguise
An act that has nomore stage
A love like a maze
That is lost on each gaze
What way to go 
Which road do we select
Now we disconnect....

An inner turmoil of the self, whilst the world continues to revolve around. Deep emotions flowing throughout this piece. Good morning from sunny Inverness >> James
