Prisoner to my own mind,
Wandering for peace I know I will not find.
The dark thoughts overwhelm me.
Left to my own devices, I am no longer free.
I drown myself in books,
Fictional words full of anything from magic, demons, or poems to crooks .
Sometimes it's not enough.
I'm cuffed,
to this terrible thing called my mind.
It pokes and prods at me and tells me to grow a spine.
How kind,
this generous brain of mine.
