Tricks of the mind

"
My mind plays tricks on me
My age?twenty nine, goin on fifty
but my eyes are seein things, that aren't really there
like evil beings, floating through the air

My ears are hearin cries from the dead
Its got me screamin, "please, get out of my head!"
But still the sounds muffle my ears
its been this way for a couple of years

They still haunt me, and that's fine
afterall, they're just a creation of my mind

The first line in this piece just says it all. Our mind can be deceiving, but it can also help and inspire us to create beautiful work :) this was marvelous!

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
Kind of scary. But the last line lightens the piece somewhat, as you admit you know they are just a creation of your own mind. Interesting write.
