Leave me

What happens when I'm left in my own head.

Leave me to my thoughts, to the inexplicable confusion

That has been brought. It is a losing battle that i fight,

That i have fought so many times before. Leave me 

sprawled out on the floor doomed, left all alone

In this dark room

Leave me to my self, don't bother asking for no help

Leave me to my own devices as more anxieties develop

I'm stuck inside, no where to hide. This is where i bide

Terrified. like an outcast. Though i may outlast 

i don't leave untouched. I am there crutch

Leave me to my own crisis, my self made disaster

Don't know what the time is, but it ain't going any faster

am the king, the cause to the wreckage of everything

The way it stings, it brings me down. when no one is around

I ca be found, bound by my own demons

'bound by my own demons' powerful ending. I felt every line of this poem. So full of emotion and meaning and pain. An amazing outlet for when times are tough! Keep writing :)
