Tornado of Emotion

Am I lost in my own mind?

Did I leave it all behind?

How must I swim back to reality?

Where did I end up in this mystery?

It has twirled around my feet

Pulled on hard and drove me deep

Right to the core of insanity...

Locked away from reality...

Choking on my grief

Awaiting the relief

Of remembrance

And deliverance

An eternity left to go

For my mind to remain so

Emotions in me stinging

The anguish ever rising

My own thoughts whip my back

'Til the bones become slack

And the blood had dripped down

On my innocence; my only gown

Shuddering pain

No personal gain

Will it remain

Forever the same?

My mind's eyes are closed and hidden

My heartbeat stops, my thoughts have fallen

In this tornado I am imprisonned

Never again will my dear soul be reasonned
