Prison of my mind

Locked in the prison that is my mind
The key no where and sight
And i wish it was for if it was
I would unlock this prison and run far away from here

People tell me that I do not want to die
That I only want to solve the problems that lurk inside

And the first step to this is to find the key
For the key tells me how to escape and once I find it I will once again want to stop and smell the flowers and watch there pretty buds bloom

Maybe then I wouldn't be so concerned about the lies that fall from someones lips and I would care more about myself and tending to my own garden

I have hope that I'll find the key out of this prison one day

And when I do I will run far from this place

but then one day I will come back

One day I will come back and I'll step into this prison willingly

I'll run my fingers down the cold rusted over iron bars

Then I'll lock the door

I'll sit there and study what hides in crevices and holes in this strange place and once I know all that I feel is necessary I will unlock lock the door once more

Stepping back into the world to explore once more

But I'll never forget where I came from and how I came to open the doors

But until then I stay locked in my prison still searching for the key
