I can’t think straight anymore
My mind races at the speed of light
Can’t comprehend this life anymore
It’s all so confusing
Like a jigsaw with unlimited pieces

I want this to be over
I want something more
I’m in dire need of medical care
For this insanity is brewing
Making me into a creature
That is beyond feelings of hope
Overshadows windows of opportunity
Rips love from the bones

What you see is the remains
Of a once young heart
That pulsated with a dream
Of being more than what he is now

Yet they still take what they can
Bit by bit
Until a naked soul stands
Unrecognizable

And deep within still lays a boy
Terrified and alone
Only his demons keep him company
As they poke and prod
Making faces and calling names

Screams of fear
Fall on deaf ears
Blood seen clearly
Drips to the floor
The boy is hopeless
But nobody really cares
If so let them speak
……
Just as I thought
Silence is all he hears
The little boy continues to cry
Begging someone to find him
Scare away the demons
Sing a lullaby for him to hear
But they will come just in time
To be to late
As he closes his bloodshot eyes
And drifts into forever
