Mind

I feel it in my throat

The pain strangling me

As I rip apart my soul

Searching for answers I long to find

The demons call out to me

My ears blled as their voices

Pound in my head

Their cold words

Crawl like loneliness across my skin

Alone I wait

It starts in my stomach

The fear that washes over me

As I scrape my nails across

The prison's walls

No rope, no hand to save me.

My screams choked my the thick toxic air

Hollow tears fall from my eyes

No love, no hope, no escape

I wither away

Sink to the floor

Alone I wait.
