Twisted Mind

I'm in limbo and I fear, my mental sanity is a world away. Shame floods through me, for things I didn't do, for things I've done, for words that left my mouth, for words I failed to say So I swallow my pride back down to keep with the perpetual bleeding in my brain and nervous burning in my heart. I'm in limbo and I fear my simmering blood starts to boil as I'm waging wars with myself for hopes lost in a blink of an eye, for dark thoughts lurking deep within, for tears rolling down my cheeks, I will it to stay put so I take the magic pill waiting for numbness to send me to oblivion, into sweet nothingness.
