The Abyss Within

Insanity invades my mind, a relentless tide, 

Corrupting my heart, where emotions collide. 

I'm lost in the darkness, devoid of light, 

I scream for help, but no one's in sight.

Sinking into uncertainties, I struggle to breathe, 

Suffocating with thoughts, a tangled wreath. 

My body's drained, an empty vessel remains,

Faint memories linger, like distant refrains.

Trapped in my own nightmare, a relentless bout, 

Desperately dragging my body, seeking a way out. 

My mind drifts from reality, it's slipping away, 

Fearful of getting lost, in shadows I sway.

If it's about connection, I'm bound by chains, 

Words overflow, where comfort remains. 

Strength I feign, my truths concealed, 

Hidden wounds scarred, emotions revealed.

Living with guilt, it gnaws at my head,

 Chains squeeze my chest, a soul left in dread. 

Emotions distorted, born and transformed, I

 seek isolation, from the world I'm torn.

I close my eyes, darkness is all I perceive, 

No one disturbs my solitude, I long to believe. 

A heart unbreakable, a shield from the pain, 

To shed fear of hurt, to break free from the chain.
