I'm Stuck

Trapped in my own mind, thoughts encircling me never giving me a chance to just breathe.

I'm stuck here

Trapped in endless torment.

There is no way back,

no breadcrumbs to follow,

to get back into the light.

There is no way out

I am stuck.

Held hostage in my own mind

no one to talk to

no one to see

I fear i am going crazy

I'm going insane

I think-

No

I know

I cannot recover

like a house that has been burned to ash

I cannot be fixed

I cannot be restored

I am broken

My mind has been taken over by wildflowers;

All bruised and wilted

There is no sunshine.

There is no light

There is no yellow

There is no happiness

I am stuck here

Trapped in endless torment.

Like a sunless planet,

I am,

Cold.

Dead.

I am..

Author's Note

i wrote this around 3 in the morning. I was alone, in my room, and scared. I have severe depression and anxiety and my mind races all day. It stumbles over thoughts never letting me slow down to really think about them. This is when I thought the most clear in weeks.
