Obsession

Inside my room I sit and stare at all the empty walls
I think about the world outside these dark and dreary halls
My mind keeps spinning making every thought seem hard to bear
and sometimes in the depths of night I can't find one to care
I know within the tragic air the winds of time may change
and someday maybe thoughts and actions will be in my range
I face so many scary thoughts and sometimes even pain
I try to make myself calm down but I just go more insane
Anxiety is taking over...I'm losing control
and at the point where all is worthless I forget the goal
I try to breathe, I try to speak, I try to think and feel
But somehow in the dead of night depression seems too real.
Within the walls of lonely rooms the sorrow sinks in deep
And gone is all the sanity that I tried hard to keep
I cry. I scream. I yell and shout but nothing seems to work
Cause nothing but these tragic words inside my head do lurk
I want. I crave With deep desire... I seek to endure
The bitter sweet and endless feelings that within me stir
I hold them close and keep them safe until they must assuage
The tender fears of all who read the words upon this page
Now the time has come for you and I to part our ways
And hopes that you will find me on one of my better days.
