Trapped Within

Lightening flashes across the sky
Rains pour down, nothing left dry
Churning waters and waves being formed
In my own head, my personal storm
Raging constantly, violent as ever
Turbulent winds, fatal weather

My very own personal hell
The fear that I feel, can't even tell
Thunder rolling, rocky seas
Everyone else has already flee'd 
Trapped within, never to be
Without escape, never free

Voices screaming, echoing around
I can't help but to fall to the ground
Sometimes they are too much to bare
I'm curled in a ball unable to care
Scared to live but afraid to die
Within this world full of beautiful lies
