Isolation

A vacuum of emptiness is where my mind lies

Devoid of the feeling that I matter at all

No light can be seen except the fire inside

Burning with rage to begin my great fall

A cage of regret imprisons my lonely heart

Beating in tandem with the countdown to death

The isolation is killing me, ripping me apart

For I no longer see people, only my breath

A chamber of silence suppresses my voice

Pleading to the world to give me a chance

My words are weightless so I have no choice

To accept society will never break this trance

Clinging to a tether is where you'll find me

Trying to mend my heart and soul to be one again

As words beckon my mind to just let it be

For the darkest hour has yet to truly begin
