Mind
Shadows that whisper lies and hate,Statues that hold silence,
Swallow your fear,
Be poisoned by your guilt,
Rake your brain for the answer,
Retrace the tracks,
Follow your nightmares,
Disown your dreams,
Fly down,
Fall up,
Forget your life,
Break your promises,
Lie to yourself, and me
You’re burning, too,
Physically and emotionally dying,
Hatefully and mindlessly crying,
Don’t let yourself drift from me,
Hold onto your sanity and hold me close,
Self-centred and ignorant,
So lost in a world full of mystery,
Your body’s warm but your soul’s cold,
Can you see clearly?
Can you breath easily?
Nothing feels right, yes I know,
Shunned by humanity,
Left to your own,
Cry on my shoulder,
Let me know,
I’ll listen,
Please don’t be scared,
I was lost, once, too,
Hurt but thoughtful,
Hated but loving,
Somehow I forgave this world,
Gave it a second chance,
Regret scarred my mind,
Choose your own path,
Forget mine,
Lie down to rest,
Sleep if you can,
If you have a nightmare,
Will it to be a dream,
Stuck in reverse,
Refused into denial,
Pulled heartstrings and chest pains,
Dancing black spots and deadly illnesses,
Tell me what’s wrong,
Don’t keep it from me,
Because if you do,
As I watch you dying,
I’m stuck here crying.
