Losing the battle within

Insane

—-

Moving back across the grain

Vision blurred by unknown cause

Mind filled with many voices

—-

Life filled with too much pain

Dark thoughts and many flaws

Always the wrong choices

—-

True hope so hard to maintain

Desperation rears it’s claws

Darkness wins and rejoices

—-

Evil claims a new domain

Growing, spreading without pause

Disturbing sound and noises

——

Battles fought solely within

Light struggles to survive

Many factions waging war

Destruction begins to reign

——

Frightened soul comes to ruin

No direction to strive

Empty, broken, shattered, core

Tattered, violent, and insane

-

Knowing, fearing, everything amiss

Forever falling into an abyss
