Escape

Escape is all I want to do,
escape from all my thoughts;
they scare me and frighten me
I'm feeling like I'm caught.

Caught by all things evil
I'm falling into the trap.
I'm afraid if I keep listening
that there is no coming back.

My mind is my worst enemy
I know it tells me lies;
I'm determined to escape it,
then at times I wonder why.

I am bi-polar plus I have a personality issue. Abuse and everything else. Your poetry is awesome. Yea it would be nice to be friends.

Very nice. I tangled with some of these same thoughts over the years. My only qualm is the double negative ' isn't no coming back '. If you were to remove the n't , it has so much more of an impact. Other than that, I say good job.
