Eternal Prison

Like uneven waves from a tsunami
My mind is just as crazy as the waves,
The endless and eternal prison
My mind keeps me in drowns me in my sorrows.

The thoughts I have shower down like an acid rain
Like the plague it invades and ruins my brain,
Please send me the sun as I am stuck with the moon
Please come and rescue me soon

It catches me at the worst times
As it finds me alone late at night
I beg of it to go away
But what if the pain will make sense someday?

The eternal prison takes me to a series of secrets
As I am engulfed in each and every one of them
I am bound to relive
As I am a prisoner that’s been condemned

To an eternal death
The chatter of tiny voices are still invading
The feelings of anger and sadness eat away at me
As if I am a nobody

I want to shout and scream
I want to awaken from this cursed dream
I want the feelings of being angry and sad to evade my mind
I want it to leave just as fast as they came

I just want to be free from this eternal bind
I hate the person who I became
My tears want to flow out and express my true self
But I force them back

The eternity is getting to me
Making my soul creek and crack
The intruder is here
And I can’t do anything about it
