Living Nightmare

~ Living Nightmare ~

Beings not even human, haunting my flawed mind,
Allowing sanity to slowly slip, and pain for me to find,
The time I’ve spent with tears, has grown only to a hate,
Each scar is another reminder, of another night’s mistake.

My life is dead and gone, balance is off the chart,
My soul and my body, are just now to far apart,
Getting tired of the defence, the fights against my soul,
Each night its getting harder to try and keep control.

Kill each broken part of me, take my fractured heart,
Let me be at peace, for once, to make a fresh new start,
I long to live a ‘normal’ life, or at least to be able to smile,
I don’t even see anymore, how my self harm can be worthwhile.

Listen to the rising torture, see my beautiful pain,
Slowly realise that with time I’m now getting insane,
Nothing makes sense, but in this world everything’s ‘clear’,
I now see that the subtle reality of life, is what I fear.
