What Is Burning?

What is Burning?

locked in my head again

It’s awfully dark in here

I can’t find my way

I’ve found a pathway, maybe - a hint of ruby - it sparkles

I can smell something.. burning?

Following the scent - Rubies rain from the top floor of my mind

Plates shatter, tables fly

Shes looking me in the eye

Silently, she’s screaming

H e l p

PLEASE HELP

The floor caves

I’m falling - fast

So fast

I’ve hit the bottom of my mind

An abyss, if you will

I can’t reach the door

The windows are boarded up

It’s hard to breathe

There’s too much smoke

I’m suffocating

I’m suffocating

Rubies - my skin, rubies

My mind, obsidian

My body

Ash

Haunted Mind

In the fog

Will o wisps

Leading me through the bog of my mind

Stuck - I’m stuck!

Before me - I see them

One by one.. Lights, dimming

Hopes, swimming - swirling around me

I see myself as a child

I’m sinking

I can feel the longing for something better

Being met with yet another

And another

And another

Regret

Body Rot

Some days - my body can be a fresh flower

Today though?

I felt my insides rot

I felt the color drain

I felt myself decomposing

Insects all around

I’m molding, into the ground

This is the final time I lay down

What bliss - sinking into the unknown abyss that is freedom..
