Inside My Mind

by kayla   Apr 22, 2010


I've locked myself away from the world.
Safe deep inside my mind.
So deep, not even the pain cannot reach me.

A welcome reprieve,
From the days of loneliness.
the nights filled with never-ending nightmares and faceless horrors.

I lock myself away.
Because the world doesn't want me,
and I don't want the world.
For it is the water,
and I am the oil.
And water and oil cannot mix.

The scars that decorate my skin,
tell of the battle raging within
the tears silently shed,
the screams, forever unheard.

Will this be my future?
My destiny?
To be alone, forever, locked within my mind?
Alone to battle the hurricane of emotions?
To walk this Earth without a soul?

For today, my soul has committed suicide,
even though my body lives on.
There is nothing left of me,
just an empty shell
of the person I used to be
Locked away forever inside my mind.
