I once thought when I
was with you
I could say that "this was right"
but suddenly
the
walls would cave in around me
my breather held short
as I pulled
myself away
I feel like tearing apart my soul
breaking myself and
in doing so
I may take a part of you with me
I can't live this
way
it makes my heart weak
and my spirit cry
while I go
though this torment
surrounding myself in shadows
afraid that the world within me
will be discovered by those
I love
now alone
I can wander
through the labyrinth of my mind
try to seek within
me
swallow away my troubles
but fears bind me
entangled and
confused
I cannot travel beyond the black mirror
to the place where
light may shine
because my dark twin knows that
no good
can come of me
no life can be lived
Forever will I wander
though
this maze of chaos
never finding life of peace
to calm the
turmoil in my soul
