My head is throbbing,
my mood is deteriorating.
I can’t seem to tune out
the demons in my mind.
They scream and scrape
like nails on a chalkboard...
scratching away hope
and leaving a residue
of evil intentions.
I just can’t get over
my bad attitude.
I just can’t find anything
to smile about.
My heart is black,
tarred through and through.
Who will clean me now?
