I close the vault within my mind

And let the memories dance inside

Of  happiness, anger, love and despair

All kept silent, twirling around

Within the confines

Known as my mind

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I hear them screaming

The wailing is unbelievable

The red is suffocating

The need is inhumane

I hear them laughing

The cackles are deafening

The lights are blinding

The high is wild

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I breathe in the sweet toxic fumes

Of my so called emotion

My eyes light up

My heart swells

I feel faint

I feel weightless

I feel like

I've experienced cloud nine

The blissful aroma is sickeningly delicious

Like one thousand honey jars

I close my eyes and rest my head

On my soft pillow in a lucid dream

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I breathe in the untraceable scent enveloping me

I cannot place it

It smells melancholy

It smells weak

Unable to move on

My eyes droop

My shoulders fall

I feel a strange state of relaxed restlessness

I feel weighed down

The weight of the world on my shoulders

I feel like I don't have the energy to smile

This wavering wafting scent

Kicks the sweet one out of my head

All I know is this aroma

I've turned into Sisyphus

Thanks to this comforting perfume

I close my eyes and rest my head

On a soaked, teary pillow

In a beautiful nightmare
