Ptsd it’s a trauma that leaves a stain on the soul  ,pain  drained the sane leaving you now insane! Suffocating from trauma I fail in a coma Don't wake me, please let me believe in these dreams I feel some ease i’m being naïve I feel  relief from the grief I’m at peace with being deceived like Adam and Eve I leave the scene with a sting
With a sting Tracing the shadow of a broken wing.
They say the truth sets you free,
But the truth is a cage between the world and me.
So I retreat back to the gray,
Where the ghosts of the past have nothing to say.
