Looking over, down below I can feel myself begin to overflow The waves rise as I feel my stomach churn I would rather have my skin set alight and start to burn Rivers form behind my eyes As I cry out to the skies My body shivers, not from the cold But from a mental prison that cannot be controlled. However, what scares me the most is I don’t know why Because what does that imply? That my mind is nothing but a coin flip And with heads, I’m fine, but with tails, I lose my grip My fear of the world around me is never-ending Yet, I still wish I could stop pretending Until that day comes, I’ll continue to sink Never able to truly think.
