Hallucination Worries
February 11, 2014
cold
dark
alone in the night
tried to run away
though I was told not to fight
i know the feeling all too well
the hoping and hoping to die
and then you're told
“dont cry”
well they are wrong
i can’t escape the pain
by closing off the tears
it only holds it in
and lets it fester inside
death is easy for some
but comes too hard for me
i just want to escape
from this hell on earth
please don’t tell me to shut up
i sometimes need to talk
everything's been held inside
and now the monsters
breaking out
