Prisoner Of My Mind

I am a prisoner of my mind

Chained down by every judgment

Trapped by what society thinks

Cornored by beliefs that you are not good enough

Beaten by what the world has to say

Strained by the memories you wish never happened

Tourtured by the thoughts of never being loved by the one you bother caring about

The only true freedom of the mind

Is by having the ability to say that you don’t care

And are able to mean thoses three words

But sometimes three words can mean so much

Sometimes they can become impossible to say

Those three words stay behind the bars of the prison that is your mind

And they can’t get out unless you say them aloud

It is the only way to be free of yourself and your mind

So why can’t we do it

Why is it so hard to say those three simple words

Because to say it

You have to believe it

And that is why

I will never be free

That is why I am a prisoner of my mind

17. I like to count the stars and daydream. I like to believe that dreams come true and wishes are granted. We're all lead on different paths but somewhere along the way they'll intersect and when it happens, well I can't wait to meet you :)

Reflection

Reflection What I see In the black mirror I can never love My image clearer I see a hurt boy, Injured by fear. Scared of the world, Scared of the tears. In time, The scars may heal.

When joining this site I asked for inspiration and was granted an idea about chasing our own shadows. So here are my thoughts on what that means.

Pointless

Today, I woke up feeling murderous. I want to hurt someone, or just laugh out loud at someone else's misery.

Where's My Head At?

I'm sure I had rational thought, Once upon a time. Though when that was seems far ago. For suspicious thoughts are hounding me. And clouding all my sight. Stopping me from seeing all that is good.

I Will Survive

It grips ever so tight. It has me in a vice. Like a mouse. Caught by surprise. By a cat that was just lurking outside. Depression grips me and won't let go. A forced smile comes out wrong.

Happy?

I've read around and I hear you say, That today is Opuss's happiness day. I fished around, and found my smile, I don't wear it very often, it ain't my style.

Life.

I have much depression, Also aggravation. I'm confused, But maybe amused. I feel dead inside, My life is like a bumpy ride. Something is always wrong, But I just hang on.

I'm lost...walking up the wrong way on an escalator...an idiot making the same mistakes over and over. I have the keys to heaven but I stripped them on purpose and now I am trapped inside my anger.
