Lost Within My Mind

Lost within my mind

Trapped by the haunting of my own fears

Lost and wandering while still searching

Searching for the answer that will end it all

Lost within my mind

Words and pictures that are meaningless to life

Lost within the scenes of previous mistakes

Drowned by the sorrows of my life

Lost within my mind

Lies a beast, who holds the key, and can’t be tamed

Lost while fighting blindly to my fears

Feeling brave, if only for the moment

Lost within my mind

Lies the answers to the fears, and pains that will end it all

Lost, trapped, searching, drowning, and fighting all within my mind
