In the darkness of my mind
only troubled thoughts come alive
I hide behind this mysterious veil
from all those prying eyes

As days go by without meaning
lost, I wander lonely in a  haze
fear what the blackness holds
trapped in this immortal’s maze

Heavy burdens on my shoulders
these dark walls are closing in
as guilt washes over me
emptiness echoes  deep within

Struggling within the demon’s grasp
guiding me into deeper descent
offering me an inviting hand
it seeks fervently without relent

I shudder at the coldness of the touch
the shadows stretched their claws
my soul plunged into agony
and the pain of despair gnaws

Sorrow fills this heavy heart, oh the ache
darkness crept into the crevices of my mind
praying to be lifted from this wretched torment
slowly consuming,  fate can be so unkind

I will surrender, sleep comforts me
alone feeling hopeless and bleak
In my sleep I can dream without anguish
as a tear rolls down my cheek
