The Trap of the Mind by Brenda Stephens
The haunt of loneliness Echoes in my mind
The still , the silence A den for insanity
I can ’ t go on Yet I must endure For if I lose my mind to them
I will be devoured – gone
Loneliness is a killer of minds And my mind is the loneliest of all I can ’ t scream
Can ’ t breathe Can ’ t move
I just wallow in it In loneliness Until my body grows numb
Will I ever be okay ? Be right again ? Or will my mind stay silenced
In this God-awful haze Until I fade away into the nothingness That I feel every day
