I woke up Today (so tired) And I’m… Not sure what I’m doing (so very tired) But I think, I am thinking? Am I thinking? What’s my name? Who am I? Why? What’s the point? Why am I here? Can I leave now? Only A Few Long Painful Relentless Hours till escape Not rest Exactly Just… Absence A necklace of rope Too many down the hatch Too easy Sometimes it’s Better To be kept In the dark Safer and Quieter Safer but Colder Safer but Alone Somewhere where Light Doesn’t shine Doesn’t reveal Doesn’t destroy Can I go to sleep now? A path of words Thoughts, Choices Millions and Millions of doors Which to go through Who knows? Put me under the stars And see me For who I am Myself Alone Take off this mask Of smiles And grins This suit of armour That guards The soul Sure, Being trapped Inside One’s own mind Can be Quite lonesome But Has anyone ever wondered What lurks inside? I am a breathing contradiction I am here but I am insignificant. I am alive but Dead inside Hiding in the dark Yet Living in the light Alone.
