In the Mouth of Madness
Another night needing some spiritual advice
Seeking the signs to spark my mind
Wishing I knew the way to entice
Forgiveness from god for each sin she finds
The deep seated doubt felt by people like me
Every cold pain that runs through my chest
I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy
Convincing myself this is where I greet death
The panic attacks and depression hit hard
In addition to that, I rarely get sleep
In most ways, I’m dazed, just lost and bizarre
Luckily, no one ever notices me.
Someday I pray it all goes away
So I can finally find my own peace
Feeling happiness naturally, every day
Finally feel something besides self defeat
Right now, any comfort helps
D.R.L.
