Forest (Wattys2016)

Despite what you see...

Teetering on the edge of insanity

Anxiety awakens these voices inside of me

Dark figures wait patiently in these dreams

Face was still, but flooding with streams

I stumble in dark rooms filled with gold

Disturbing imagination for a 3  year old

Breaking and crumbling, but it doesn't show

A sinister smile, but they'll never know

Lightening strikes while these thoughts

Run wild within my mind

The journey  soon becomes unbearable

But I cannot escape the forces that bind

Pills and solutions

Are all that the doctor can offer

To combat my inner demons and monsters

Sometimes I feel cursed since birth

Sometimes I see the enemy in the mirror

Sometimes I can not sleep at night

Because no matter how hard I try

The future refuses to be clearer

Enter such a mind as mine

And see what you find

Enter such a mind as mine

And witness what I keep confined...
