Prisoner Of My Own Thoughts

Mark The Phenomenon

In a prison of flesh, I am trapped and confined
My mind is a maze, where thoughts are forever aligned
With the weight of regret, that I cannot define
A life of mistakes, that I wish to re-align

My heart beats with sorrow, a heavy, hollow sound
A cry for help, that echoes all around
I am lost in this darkness, without a way out
A prisoner of my own doubts, without a doubt

Forgiveness, a distant dream, that I cannot grasp
A fleeting thought, that slips through my fingers like sand
I am stuck in this cycle, of sadness and pain
A life of loneliness, where love is but a distant refrain

In this darkness, I search for a glimmer of light
A beacon of hope, to guide me through the night
But it's hard to find solace, when I'm trapped in my mind
A prisoner of my own thoughts, forever left behind

When darkness falls and I'm confined,
My body feels like a prison mine,
Praying, set me free from this mental bind,
Trapped in my own mind, I'm left behind.

My thoughts are a maze, a twisted design,
Unwanted thoughts that keep on aligning,
Mistakes of the past, they start to define,
A life of regret, a sorrowful sign.

I'm lost and alone, with no end in sight,
Sad and lonely, with a heart that's tight,
Mad at the world, for the pain I've known,
Depressed and weary, with a soul that's grown.

But still I hold on, to a glimmer of hope,
A chance to forgive, and let go of scope,
To release the pain, and let love shine through,
To find my way out, and start anew.
