Personal Hell

my chest shrinking
my heart beating faster
as my mind plays games
my mind tells me
i go to hell
that i spend eternity
miserable and alone
then i turn on the light
with my mind racing
but my heart calming down
with the light on
all bad thoughts fade away
and all that's left is me
miserable and alone
trapped in my own personal hell
