The way you speak to me
is a balm taken from the sea,
molded and refined
to heal my broken soul.
When the winds have left me broken,
you hum into my ears.
I follow your voice when I'm lost—
those times I cannot see,
when I’m surrounded by that thick fog
of knives and daggers.
When I'm crippled
with heartache
and feel
everything other than
nothing,
and then nothing at all.
In those times,
I follow the melody
you cast from your lips,
and I make it out alive.

I was built with an iron will and a weak soul.
I was made by the best, and built to take a hit.
You can tell I was made to be hit and not hit on.
Haha.
But despite the way I'm supposed to work...
I might as well malfunction now.

White walls
Empty beds
Silent nights
They scream loudly
They scream in terror
Lights flashing
Empty hallways
That echo into nothing
Praying to my faith
Praying not to die
Hell has found its new home
I don't want to die
All the voices echoing in my head
I'm not crazy
White walls
I don't want to be here

Your mind is a powerful place and
It can affect you in a powerful way
Depending on what you feed.
But it’s not always safe, see?
Your mind can leave you behind.
In a hurricane full of regrets and mistakes.
Your mind can throw you in a maze out of nowhere.
But what amazed me though is the fact that it can leave you
Threats.
See? Your mind is like a puppeteer
Controlling your thoughts and fears.
Sometimes you feel as if you’re floating off into
Space, and everyday you’re hoping it goes away.
Well actually…
Your mind can feed you anxiety, leading you
In a spiral of insanity of no hope.
Having the ability to shatter reality and
affecting you mentally.
Then you sit there silently because it won’t
Let go.
Then you look at yourself in the reflections,
aim at your direction,
and shoot your perception
With hate.
In fact come to think of it,
Let this sink in.
Your mind is like an act on stage
Because the things you might believe are not real.
I know that sounds strange.
Sure, you might feel as if you’re locked in a cage.
Can’t even stop yourself from reading the same page
Of the past, over and over again.
Sometimes you don’t know when to begin to love yourself.
But is that where we all struggle the most?
