Lost

I'm lost in my mind,

What a dark place to be.

No way out can I find,

No light of hope do I see.

I am stuck in here all alone,

Listening to the voices and screams.

Trying to find my way back home,

Hoping this is all just a scary dream.

Are my thoughts of death so real?

Longing to be out of my hell.

Why are pain and misery all I feel?

My mind is my own prison cell.

I cannot break free,

I tried once before.

For my insanity you see,

Will even the score

All you have to do is survive...everything else is optional.
Enjoyed it.

I have been here before, but I managed to break free and you will too! As Albus Dumbledore said from Harry Potter, “Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.”

I hope you managed to break free.

Hey Timmy, your poems speaks about a state of mind! This state of mind is somthing everyone experiences, randomly and absolutely. I like your work. I would certainly recommend a lil bit of imagery thrown it... We are speaking about state of mid here which can be as perplexed as the imagery you bring in... Also it'll coat in a unique to your words

Sometimes it's our own minds that are the scariest places for us to be. It's like at times we imprison ourselves. Reading this I felt like I could connect with you on some level. xo Winter

The mind is the most impenetrable prison there is. This piece spoke to me for sure. Well done.

It sounds like you need to find help?

"What a dark place to be..." Sometimes we fill our thoughts with darkness - and the only way out is Light. Well expressed, but so sad, Timmy. Write it - and read others here. Poets are a curious and quirky family here...
