Sleep

Please let me sleep,

I don't have to think,

Just dream

Starting over is the hardest thing to do, 

To except change and pull yourself up,

Dusting down and starting life again,

Labyrinth

Labyrinth 

 

Listen you can hear the pain echoing within my mind, 

Trying to escape the labyrinth within, 

Trying to smile again, 

A tortured soul, 

Caged within, 

Rainy days I know them well, 

That’s how the story goes, 

Rivers flow as I question why, 

On these dark miserable days, 

Turning left, 

Turning right, 

Going on straight ahead, 

Dead ends there, 

My mind going into despair, 

Searching for a guiding light, 

To guide me from my plight, 

To help me escape this labyrinth, 

Restricting me with my life, 

Silence in my darkness, 

As I struggle to hear a sound, 

Hoping to hear the footsteps, 

Of a lost soul in this maze, 

Hoping that they have found and exit, 

An easier path to follow, 

Hopefully I will find that path, 

Hopefully it will be tomorrow… 

 

 

Distortion

Distortion 

A distortion in time, 

Problem defined, 

A little seed inside of me, 

Growing in my head, 

Fueling fear to my dread, 

Stress and anxiety start to show, 

Tormented is my soul, 

The vicious circle continues, 

Round and round it goes, 

What is the answer? 

I don’t know, 

Need to get control, 

Learning to let go, 

Of what meant everything to me, 

Feeling sad as one can be. 

Mirror Image

Mirror Image 

 

Mirror please don’t speak, 

I don’t want to hear the words you would say to me, 

I find it hard to look at my image in the eye, 

Who is this guy? 

Who breaks down and cries, 

Questioning why. 

 

 

Missing

Missing 

 

I look in the mirror, 

What do I see? 

Who is that looking back at me? 

Not recognized the person I see, 

Who was once known to me? 

A blank expression of a face once known, 

An image of a broken soul, 

Lost in limbo, 

Floating in time, 

Fighting for stability and a real reason why, 

Broken hearted betrayed by love, 

The one he trusted the most. 

 

 

Feelings out of Control

Feelings out of Control 

 

Way up high, 

Way down low, 

That is the way my feelings go, 

Reaching out trying to hold on, 

Trying to learn to let you go, 

Words of love, 

Words of hate, 

They come out in the debate, 

Crimson eyes I cannot hide, 

As tears gently roll down my face, 

Walking on, 

To remain strong, 

What once was has been and gone,  

Hour by hour, 

Day by day, 

Walking forward in the haze, 

Feeling lost, 

Feeling worthless, 

Trying to find life’s purpose, 

It is what it is, 

Just have to learn, 

To comes to terms with being alone, 

Moving forward step by step, 

Learning to start over.
