The Big Black Dark Void

Shuuuush!....silent
Not because it is peaceful
But silent of the of an outcast
Gazing at that pitch black face of the emptiness
The mind inhabit in the core of that void
Seeking liberty

Tried to yell for help but
It was pointless, no one
Can hear or help 
All that matters is the mind
Keeps on staring at that
Big black dark pit

Imagining the window 
Of the outside world
Wow!....there is joy,
Happiness and living in harmony
The sunshine smiling and 
The stars dancing around the moon
Hmmmm!....smelling some fresh air
Birds singing to the trees
Oh!...what a wonderful life
Filled with love and peace

The mind trying to drift upon that life
And all of a sudden, a slap in a hand
Then "BANG"....a big sound
Like a heavy steel door
The darkness comes rushing in front of the eyes 
as if a huge shade was drawn back on stage
In a second...there was total darkness and "BHUM"
Comes the reality show
The mind is still in that big black dark hole

The filling of despair and frustration
Takes place drastically
Through the veins straight to the
Center of the heart
The thought of that reality show
And the thought of the real life
Revealed on the outside world
Comes rushing in the mind
And go down the stream of the veins
To the heart like a Hurricane

Uh!....the filling is like the heart
Ceased beating, everything freezes
Grasping everything like a hamster
The pressure start to rise
The heart expanded and filling like
Is going to explode
The mind starts spinning like a Tornado
The body
Over heat like a Cheetah
Running for minute

Then.....the tears comes rushing 
through the eyes like a Tsunami
Breaking down the borders
They flow....flow....and they flow
In the big black dark void!
