Into My Lungs the Murky Flows

Finding solace in the shadows, Eyes burning from the day's glaring glow, Looking inside for the flickering flame, searching deep for something without a name, Lost in darkness, the abyss taunting, Clear thinking replaced by relentless wanting, A voice in the distance, a whisper on the wind, Insanity on the outside a manifestation of within, Sinking deeper into the mire, Clawing at the walls, reaching an inch higher, Arms grow weary, breathing slows, Into my lungs the murky flows.
