Every word tells a story

Dark thoughts

Even with my compass fixed,
I can't get out of here.
Have you ever felt like
you just want to disappear?

A game of chess
to stimulate my brain.
I keep losing again and again,
but who's on the other side of the game?

I'm playing against myself
and I'm losing.
Losing all I've got,
even if it's not much.
I've still earned it.

They say ' Keep it together ',
but how do I listen,
when all I want is for
the tears to not glisten.

Get away from my thoughts,
but how do I do that?
It's all in black.
And it's all in my head.
