Eyes Wide open,
Bodies in the motion.
A certain notion,
We are responsible for our motives.
Suffocating
Drowning in our own emotions.
Shouting inside,
With a psychotic smile reflecting back.
Look into the mirror,
Gaze upon the madness.
Lifes like a maze,
Trying to find the right words.
Trapped inside a vessel,
With no other choice.
Planning our next move,
Like a game of chess.
Living for the adventure,
Dying from the distance.
Feeling trapped,
Trapped as if you’re inside a straight jacket.
The four walls caving In,
Delaying the inevitable.
Craving the next moment for a fix.
Like a crack fiend,
Burning fingertips…
The alarm goes off…
Eyes wide open.
Formalizing a plan to keep the insanity locked in.
Spoken words,
A world filled with madmen.

This is so sad. Sounds like what went on the Robin Williams’s brain, or Bennington from Linkin Park. I think we should let the madness out because there is more room outside than inside.

Yes, mental health is a very complicated and difficult thing to experience. I hope that anyone who is dealing with an issue can express themselves. If not, hopefully I could be a person they can reach out to and tell their story or issue to. Hopefully this piece can help others soothe their pain and also give people who aren’t aware a glimpse inside of someone who is struggling with their emotions. Thank you for your comment and I hope you enjoy the material I post!

Thank you for reaching out. People do need to raise their awareness of the emotional turmoil that terrorizes many people, who suffer silently. I appreciate your work.

No problem! Yes it’s a very sad truth, and I encourage anyone who is feeling like they can’t be heard; or are afraid of being judged to reach out.
I really appreciate that, hopefully the hard work is paying off.
If you have time in the future, there’s an older post titled “violation”, in which I write about victims who have experienced abuse.
