It's Strange Inside
Sometimes my mind gets in a dark place when I'm depressed but this time it was like a visual experience I had to write about in this mindset. In the end I look back on the experience as enlightening as it led to me finding out I had been suppressing myself inside and was shaving off the qualities that made me me. So I started to have a turnaround and began expressing myself more in my life and starting to enjoy my life a bit more. I hope you enjoy it.

It's strange inside my head
I travel there in my silence
Burdened is my mental home
My existence in the balance
It's strange inside my head
I travel there in my silence
Burdened is my mental home
My existence in the balance
It's strange inside my mental home
Blurred pictures line the walls
Fog crawls ever thicker inside
I start to lose myself in the halls
It's strange inside this place
Color drains the further I delve
Memories and pictures erase
Ahead onyx stairs descend
It's strange inside the dark
Endless seem the steps
Under spotlight from a spark
I see a familiar sight
It's strange inside my cell
Straining to make sense
Of my neighbor suspended next
A kid secluded in the dark
It's strange inside...
When did I get here?
Lost I ask "Who are you?"
... "I'm you..."
