Seeing Landmines

They were there
I swear
Bombs of hate
And I was panicking
I was seeing landmines...
That weren't there
But when you've been through that battlefield before
You can't unsee the fear
The pain remains
Over a broken mind
I'm a broken soldier
That can't be fixed
The explosions are still there
THEY'RE STILL THERE
AND THEY'RE STILL GOING OFF!
...
And then I wake up
To see a destruction I caused around me
I snapped
But I don't remember what happens
I myself am a landmine
Surrounded by landmines
That aren't there
