Madness

I feel a little lost within,

Everything under my skin

Has started to spin

Forgive me if I don't make sense

I feel as though I might break again

I'm not sure where I'm going

The wheels in my mind won't stop turning

All in different directions

- I think I feel something burning

Is this mental self-destruction?

When I stop and think,

I begin to shiver and shake

Frustration, fear and pain

Hope and loss have left me drained

So I spin, out of control, down the line

It's dark and cold

So hot it burns

Losing my mind

But still it churns

Out reckless thoughts

(Oh, it hurts!)

...Yet all the while

A little voice sings

At the edge of the darkness

Calling me

Calming me

Reminding me
