I saw the hidden depth of your mind
how cupboards and draws overflowed
possessions that never saw light
the fighting voice
concealed so well
the tempest mind
a circling vulture
observing your anxious soul
The jack-in-the-box
repeats the taunt
the junk yard room
holds you in
the eternal past
the flood of regret
a hopeless future
leaving you stagnant and lifeless
the eternal hall of shadows
frightening life away
Logic cried out to me
"Run!!
I wept
and said
"I love you still"
