Look inside my mind

With these lines, I let you inside,

To witness what lies on the other side.

To see of what kind exactly I am,

Before I seal myself off, like a clam.

So have a look inside My mind,

Where all the thoughts are so complexly intertwined.

 

Like faith in real love and a brightful future,

With the loneliness of a shallow creature.

Or the wish to have a family,

With the denying words of the enemy.

Or the hope that someone will finally recognise You,

With the dreadful thought that no one would ever try to...

 

Like an image of everyone being happy,

With the forbidding truth of Your reality.

Or the truth that you are capable and smart,

With the growing pain inside your heart.

Or the feeling that all is not yet lost,

With the urge to just end it already, at any cost…

 

Light and darkness, in an endless struggle.

I wonder, how my mind so far did not crumble.

My biggest fear is that the conclusion is near,

And I cry for help, but no one will hear.

No one will hear, because no one cares.

Because the life they chose for me, is not theirs…
