Just Out Of a Poets Mind

these thoughts in my head seek to destroy me
I found the darkness that I lay within
that haunts me at night
I cannot run from it nor do I try
I cannot hide from it, and I don’t know why
its a never ending battle that I struggle with each day
it over powers me, because it knows my weakness
one day it will kill me
and that will be the end
but I’m not quite sure where to go
and I’m not quite sure what to do
I feel so lost, nowhere to go
I feel so down, just so low
sitting here smoking a Marlboro red, inside I feel so dead
I scream so loudly inside my head
but no one can hear me, I cannot even hear myself
just out of a poets mind
