Life is an illusion

Surrounded by people yet all alone,
Trapped within this solitary zone.
A world where chaos and hate overtake,
Every bit of happiness that may try to escape.

Laughter and smiles never seem to last,
Because I am haunted by memories of my past.
Running the distance with nowhere to go,
These are the days of my life, a Broadway show.

Screaming for help, does anyone hear,
The demons of death are coming so near.
Echoes in my head tormenting me all day long,
Breaking the woman who was once very strong.

What does serenity mean anyway,
Is it the peacefulness in my life or just the words I say.
Deep rooted evil no time for a soul mate,
Wondering why joy is always a day late.

Suicide is the easy answer many times I've tried,
Happiness seems to be the tears I have cried.
Unable to distinguish what's real from what's fiction,
Hope is an illusion, an optimist's prediction.

What will it take to get me right,
A visit from the devil on a lonely night.
Angels prepare to battle and take a stand,
To remind me of their holy land.

When I want to give up, they push for me to be strong,
In my head I hear their harmonious song.
A tranquil state I now find myself,
Dealing with the hand in which I was dealt.

Good vs evil, what does it really mean,
Am I dirty when I appear to be clean.
Life is an illusion a constant mind trick on me,
Who knows what my fate will be.

Heaven and hell are both fair game,
Will I succumb to peace or fall down in shame.
Surrounded by people yet all alone,
Trapped within this solitary zone.
