The point of no return

I am trapped in confusion as life takes its toll.

I am slowly forgetting ,I\'m losing control.

I am lost in the new world

Not far from my past.

Have I lost a long struggle with my mind at last?

 I am spinning in circles 

Getting dizzy with each turn.

As I see a sudden glimpse of my mind begin to burn..

I am screaming out in terror,

As I run through darkened Halls.

I am searching as I panic

To escape these dreadful walls.

I am forced to face the darkness,

All the pain inside of me.

Am I strong enough to beat again,

My mind\'s insanity.

I am slowly losing strength,

I can feel my heartbeat fade, 

Have I gone too far to stop this time?

The lies my mind has made.

I am waking by the pounding,

There\'s a knock upon my door,

I am greeted by my mind,

For to struggle with once more.

I am seeing in my future

        A certain point of no return,

Where I\'ll feel that glimpse of fire.

That my mind is sure to burn.
