I walk in the valley each day
Sometimes green and full of hope
Sometimes wonder if I'll cope
I talk in the valley each day
Whether or not somebody's there
I'll chat away, I don't care
I sleep in the valley all night
Colour, sometimes monochrome
Bad dreams when I'm far from home
I cry in the valley alright
There's no question, no debate
About my failing mental state
I'd die in the valley tonight
People try to lecture me
That won't help, can't you see?
O valley will you shelter me
For in your peace I long to be

Here I Am
Mind: numb Cogs: still whirring... Body: aches Eyes: nothing occurring. There's life in here, but who turned the lights out. Who said "Forget it", then gave my brain the wipeout.

Blackout
Darkness summons the moody angst, And romance of an inner evil; A force the subject fights against, Or submits to, welcome thinly veiled. Not this dark.

Where am I?
Where am I,. With ceilings so high. Chandeliers fall from the sky. Where am I,. With the windows so big,. That the whole word can see me jig. Where am I,. People stare. Looking here and looking there.

Lost
Her hair is dark. Her eyes are too. Her skin is pale. Her lies are true. Her thoughts are hers. And hers alone. Her heart gives out. A busy tone. She stays inside. Her self made cage. Lets no one in.

Night
Night, would you please. Take me away. Swallow me up. Away from today. Being me deep down. To the depths where dreams lie. And keep me there safe. In your star-speckled sky. Knock me out cold.
