Thread of rope that makes up my brain
Ties itself around my neck
When I try to overthink of all problems
Strangling me until I turn blue
And the pain is unbearable
A moment where I can't see hope
And I want to fly into the clouds
To escape the sorrow my mind now is
A forest to get lost in
Constructs the depths of my mind
An ocean of secrets and pain and hurt
Nostalgia withing the waters stirred
And the air changes, the pressure increases
The water can flow over its container
The unwinding paths of my thoughts
Are flooded with imaginary friends and enemies
An oath to get away from the distress
I try to paddle away, my oars breaking the ocean
Of my most painful memories I've recaptured
Reminiscing the days I wished to disappear
Into the void of the space
And exploded like a supernovae, that would stay undiscerned
But I clear my mind of this murky obscurity
And at once there is a pure clarity
I'm not hanging from the fine string anymore
I am on concrete ground, firm as a pillar
With the scars that engrave my skin
Tattoos of hardships life brought me
But instead of failure they show victory
I withhold my outstanding strength
Within the oceans of my mind
The forests of my heart,
And the mountains of my soul
