Trapped Inside My Mind
The breathtaking sea of thoughts
That floods my brain
Clouding my judgement
And causing severe pain
The whirlwinds of emotions
With heavy and drowning feelings
It invades all of my surroundings
As it fills my lungs with its chaotic waters
And the darkness that swallows
Me while in my sorrows
The silence it echoes
While my mind explodes
For a minute, all lays calm
Like the eye of my storm
That longs for existence
My suffers stop and I am freed
But then I wake
To realize it was just a dream
There is no escaping the internal screams
That haunt me until forever
Whispering memories of the sting
Causing my ear to ring
With my heart that aches till I break
And once again I am trapped in this fear
For I may lose to this everlasting battle
That I am forced to fight against my mind
And when I lose I may never return
For my happiness is lost
And my joy is forgotten
The light forever dulled
While my insides slowly die
All that is left is the numbness from the hurt
The tears of the heart
That leaves me scared
And the person before is no more
