Too Deep

I fell way too deep, 
Now I struggle to claw my way out of the hole
My heart is on it's way to being blacker than coal,
It's already colder than the North Pole
 ?
My life is a movie, 
A heartbroken kid is my current role
Me without her feels as incomplete as a shoe without a sole

My mind requires a 24/7 patrol,
Else, it is always on a roll
On my mental health;
All this is taking a large toll
Consuming not one part of my mind, 
But devouring it whole
All this is detrimental to my body and soul
If there was course on how to not fall as deep, 
I would make sure to enroll

I had absolutely no idea that this was what was in store for me when it was my heart she stole
I often need a clear head, I'm always out for a stroll
I need some other female to take my mind off this, 
I just might go for Keisha or Nicole
Not for any commitment though; possibly just a fling,
For there is no key that will again fit into my heart's keyhole

My thoughts are holding me prisoner, I'm in desperate need of a parole
I often wish the sad logic of all this had a loophole
I guess this  was meant to happen though,
Like some prophecy on a 100 year old scroll
