My Head Space

A cluttered and crowded places
With ashes and dust of the past
A cloudy place with pieces of broken glass

A suffocating paradise.
It can make you get lost
Please do enter at your own cost.

A disoriented and disorganized place
With questions to be asked..
It's hidden
Behind a smiling face you can't see past

It's my escape but
It engulfs me into myself manifolds
A mysterious place with all the secrets that it holds

I sit there for hours trying to organise, trying to find what I have lost
With each thing I pick up to put in place
I find a sea of wanton thoughts

I m bleeding I pricked my finger
From the sharp edge of my broken peace
I found it never the less, I m sitting on my knees

Can't point my finger at what's right and what's wrong
My logic doesn't support this rush of hormones
I hear a ringing gong
Trying to be myself,
When I don't recognize who the girl in the mirror is.

Everything feels so right then why this guilt!
I see my thoughts turning into a stagnant pool of filth
The shades of this place haunt my soul

I remind myself I am not alone there are a million like me
Then I just follow the crowd
Trying to feel like just another person

But once in a while I am pushed back
Among these shadow on the grey walls
And twirling dust in a narrow beam of light

All I see is shadows and mess
I don't want to be a mind reader
I just want to read my own mind
