PLACES OF THE MIND

PLACES OF THE MIND

 

Corrupt is he how haunts me

He filled my life with so much agony

where desperation lays at my feet,

everywhere I look, I see fear on the faces

that appear around me,

scared that Dark Angel will make traps

for them to fall in,

frustration is everywhere

in a life that isn’t fair

where people just don’t care

where love and kindness has diapered.

Where insecure places hit the mind

Where hatred and evil plays their tricks

in a world that don’t seem to exist,

people are waiting for true love to return

but, realizing that their spirit is slowly dying,

the tears are falling hard like raindrops

but there is no one around to take the pain away

it’s all up to their faith to never give in,

crying is a cleansing of the soul,

while the mind travels to a place

of the unknown, where it ends

no one could ever say,

I remember where I stood so alone,

Where old memories flood my mind

Taking me back to painful times,

Where things of the past

Will soon come again,

So, I take this token I hold in my hands

and I toss it into the sea of dreams

where all my affection that once moved my heart

will soon come back to me.

Where the chills of my soul could feel the warmth

Of what true love has given to me,

All the rejections that came my way

Bind my hopes for better days.
