These thoughts I let define me Exhaustion pumps through my veins I am enveloped in misery I have become numb to all the pain Everything is silent There is only the beat of my heart Unable to share what's inside of me I wander alone in the dark As if I were crystal that has been dropped My pieces crash to the floor I look aimlessly as they surround me I have become the person I deplore Within my mind a storm is brewing The clouds have turned an ugly gray The winds of self destruction are agitated With malice they scream my name Once I fought like a warrior Now it is so hard not to succumb the shame I fight with all that I have in me Knowing in the end It is only myself, I have to blame I beg of you not to try and fix me This is who I truly am I drop deep, but I pull myself up Please don't try to understand This is my battle I know its so all too well No one else can do this for me It alone is my inner hell In the end, I rise above this Dusting off the immense pain My pride whimpers softly Tenderly I cradle my sane
