Broken

Her Mind

Heart wrenching screams

Follows you from the dreams

Trying to block them out

Pain everywhere

People stop and stare

These are your doubts

Drowning in the water

It's a cruel manslaughter

No one saves you

Always running away

Scrambling away from the fray

And still it follows you

You're a bloodied mess

Burdened with incessant stress

Threatening to fall

Trying to stay strong

But you know all along

Despair is your shawl

Living a nightmare

Another day, another scare

Slowly growing weak

Can tell no one what's wrong

The things you've known all along

Too terrified to speak

It's all in your head

The streets running red

Just memories from the dreams

Forced yourself in believing

No words have no meaning

The wordless screams

You're going to get aid

Help to end all the charades

Stopping the delusions

The menacing laughter

What are they after

Mazes of confusion

The therapy doesn't help not at all

Your mind is a bouncing ball

No one can get in

Finally sick of it

No longer throwing a fit

Looking calmly around the room

You find it and smile

It will all be over in awhile

Good riddance to your doom

Putting it against your head

You're a book half un-read

Slowly pull the trigger

Caught in memories past

Always seem to last

You always thought you were set for something bigger

Then comes the boom

Ricochets around the room

Down you go

People rushing in

So clamorin'

Now they'll all know

What you felt was real

You lied when you said you'd heal

The world is black

Feeling no regret

No words left unsaid

There's no going back

Finally you are saved

From this horrible place

Goodbye to you
