Where did I go so wrong?

Where has my mind gone?

These thoughts, these words clouding my mind.

These iron chains have me bound,

To this cold, hard burial ground.

These actions I've made upon my being.

These actions that are triggered by so many things.

These metal pieces and this worn skin,

They fit together beautifully in a dark place within.

These iron chains, hold me down.

In These deep waters, letting me drown.

Struggling against myself.

Fighting a war in this dark, dark mind.

No where to run, no where to hide.

My lungs filling with water.

I keep on fighting but why do i bother.

These iron chains, these scary ropes.

Intertwined, tangled.

Losing my hope.

These thoughts, these words, these iron chains.

Holding me down, nothing's changed.

Iron chains, rusted and beat.

Here I declare my defeat.

Fighting the wars inside my head,

Even though I'm already dead.
