Trapped In My Head
Into the darkest depths of the mind, I dove down,
Finding fear in the fires that breathe beneath my crown.
In the flames I fought the self that seemed to flicker away,
With each force of focused effort to find what makes me sway.
Inside the delirium of my cranium I screamed from within,
Without my mouth, I was left with only a head and its skin.
