Reminiscing on the past will only lead to pain.
It brings sadness to our heart and doubt to our brain.
It’s easy to slip up, get lost in our own head.
Thinking back to good times had, whilst lying alone in bed.
Should we try to move on, block out our thoughts, and forget?
Or should we be grateful for the experiences we have gained, and the people we have met?
Materialistic lust leaves a lot to be desired,
I’m happy with the money I’ve spent and the experiences I’ve acquired.
What really matters to you at the end of the day?

I am silent
staring into my bathroom mirror
I see a faceless person with no worth, no purpose
I am lifeless
my characteristics have disappeared and only emptiness remains
the only light I see is the broken bulb flickering above me
I am numb
friendship, love, and lust have been replaced with loneliness
my mind is slipping into darkness with no means of escape
I am overcome
all my thoughts have taken over and swallowed me
as I fight with my own self conscious
I am Defeated
there is no hope for my survival as I am at war with myself and one of us must die
Every day is a personal battle

I’m all alone and cold inside this invisible prison
But I’m my own worst enemy, trapped inside my visions
Thoughts run through my head and keep me from my sleep
They haunt me, they scare me, they are far too deep
I lie silent under my covers, screaming inside my head
But no words leave my lips, so I won’t leave my bed
Fighting with your own mind

Love, happiness and contentment.
I watch my friends experience these emotions whilst I search my soul for any feeling other than emptiness. My body is present but my mind is absent.
The room is full but I’m more alone than ever.  
I stare at the blank walls around me and realise that I’m staring at my own reflection.

It’s no wonder we are anxious, nervous, and depressed
When it matters not what’s inside but how we all dress
Being genuine and kind has been left in the dirt
New sought after traits have began to give birth
How much money do you make? Are those shoes designer?
Imagine if instead we were all a little kinder
But that gets you no where in 21st century life
Where money can buy you anything, even a wife
We constantly improve on our imagine but all it brings is lust
We are missing the important things, humility, love and trust
So if you find something genuine hold on with all your might
But be prepared for them to run away in the dark hours of the night
Because nothing lasts forever and love is included
What have we become?
A generation thats deluded

Too many thoughts, too many things I feel
I feel so lost, I don’t know what is real
Im happy but yet so sad how does this end?
Why do I feel so alone when I have so many friends?
I just want to run away and escape but i have no where to go
I hate feeling like this I hate feeling this low
I just want to feel better and enjoy my life
I feel trapped, caged up like everything is out of sight
My mind is broken when did everything go wrong ?
Im on the edge of breaking down I’ve been like this for so long
I’m searching for eternal happiness in the dark
How can I fix this feeling of emptiness in my heart
Why is it when I want to sleep my thoughts are nocturnal ?
I think this is the end I fear my sadness is sempiternal
The feeling of feeling lost
