My own mind, a dreadful place
Imprisoned by my own thoughts
Sealed inside with no hope of escape
But I had made my mind a fortress
With no easy way out
To face my most daunting fears
Or forever be crippled, looking up to the setting sun
From a bottomless pit, the journey began
Living on with a burden that will only grow
Who would of known my weakness
Everyone looking up to me to provide what I don’t even have
Saving myself only relieved the pain for a brief moment
Then I was able to witness all those I left behind
My own Legacy
Haunted by an ever growing cancer
Potent, a silent killer
Slow but to the point
It starts as a seed then grows
Implanted by haste and out of anger
Breeding animosity it feds off others misery
No one is safe from its wrath, its just one collateral path
Learning Silence
To forget is to be taken back up in its venom
Flowing through ones veins straight to the brain
Slowly killing yourself with thoughts of revenge
Thoughts of what could have been, should have been
Weakening its victim as it grows within
Physically and mentally straining
Its sense of power and control its cloak
But in fact stripping oneself of any such prestige
The daunting task at hand
To forgive
The Jacket will always fit,
Now I know I need to take it off my own shoulders
