My mind betrays me.
Within an instant, I go grey.
Intoxicating, I taint the things around me
All I can do is fumble in my silent cowardice.

In my own voice,
I hear all the things I am "not"
Opposed to the little things that I am.

My mind betrays me.
It takes me into a place of darkness.
I neglect to respond,
I choose to stay away.

My joy is stolen by me.
I am replaced by a cold and empty decoy,
Left for the birds,
And they rightfully go, not knowing,
All I fear is being alone.

My mind betrays me.
Repeating what I can't do,
What I can't be.
And
What I should be,
How I am nothing.

I am nothing.
I am no one.
