He inflicted pain with a kick
A patient named Fred
Was soon seeing red,
So he jumped down and ran out quick....

With spirit beaten and soul torn
The result of self-inflicted scorn
Any heart-beat of positivity, forlorn
Loss of peace of mind is what I mourn

Unless you accept your mistakes 
When you are able to confront yourself 
To be liberated from self inflicted entanglement...

Misunderstood
The fog set herself upon the town,
With the intention of leaving out soon.
But the destruction inflicted by the people,
Forced her to stay for eternity...

My self inflicted sanity,
has caused me more pain,
than the unwillingness of my insanity
to set me free.
trapped in a soulless world,
i wonder endlessly forever....

I’ll not bother for you
do not torture yourself

passed death sentence
on our love

Broken
Because i use to care so free

Reflections run too deep

Open scars inflicted me

Kept only for defeat

Ending dreams of what could be

No future could repeat...

Bare soul deep pain
Burning like coals
Leaving an indelible mark on the heart
Overcome by the balm that heals
the wounds inflicted by lovesickness

Imperfect
Indented by harsh waves
Injured by cold sharp rocks
Inflicted by failures
Irate at injustice
I come to you naked
Indolent, extinguished
Illuminate me Lord

Silence attacking
from deep in the hall
Damage inflicted
the metronome stalled
Blood in the orchestra
harmony thrawn 
Melody slaughtered
— rhapsody gone
