The Lost Child Inside the Deranged Mind

In the depths of this mind A fruit in decay. Alone and forgotten The child, Shamed and in dismay. Love and pain intertwined Memories hidden—not rotten. Abandoned by fate Nurtured by hate. Love is the fiend In the depths of this mind Hope has departed Pain is kind— A playground for the angry hearted. In the depths of this mind Herein lives despair next to desire, Anxiety defeats amity And over and over again— Atrocity wins over sanity.
