It seems as if I'm lost
In this maze of thoughts.
I see only darkness,
Can't find my way out.
I feel the presence of them,
How they capture me.
I must worry now about me,
When I'm also worried about them.
Can't I stop and take a rest?
Can't I take a sip of medicine?
But now they have me captured,
I've nowhere to go.
I feel their grasp tightening,
And they won't release.
Why no candy, why no fun?
It's all responsibility,
My fault for all.
He's talking to me now,
Telling me to come.
But I can't leave this place,
I'm stuck in here for eternity.
If I'm ever released,
I'll be sure to visit.

But now I feel this vortex,
The swirling surrounding me.
Darkness fading,
I see a light.
"It's me,"
The voice coos at my figure.
It's a pale white light,
In the shape of a face.
Old and weary,
He gazes unsightly.
Why has he chosen me?
Everybody says I'm perfect,
Maybe they should visit my thoughts.
I may be lucky on the outside,
But my mind is overrun;
Overrun by lonely souls.
