Inescapable

poetboy5454

Calm and peaceful day shattered, as it all breaks out

Releasing a tidal wave of terror and unstoppable doubt

Confusion and chaos bringing me to the brink

Upon this stormy sea, the boat of hope begins to sink

 

Trapped by the tide and whirlpools of emotion

All the things locked inside, let out into an ocean

Can’t control these feelings like crashing waves

I have to take the reins, refuse to be their slave

 

Drowning my heart with these overflowing tears

Thrown around by all my surrounding fears

Storm clouds gather and lightning strikes and thunder rolls

Time stops, heart starts, ready to contain my raging soul

Master of my own mind, I’m pulling out the drain

Vanishing until they decide to be free once again
