...lock-step
By SolApathy
…Words
My sword into the soul
Drive deep
Without control
Or fear
Free here
To be whom I am
Who I’ve forgotten to be
Lost in this lock-step
Society
Where emotions darker than dusk are a crime
Outcast because I feel
Much too real…
A crime for the darkness to turn me on?
For my desire to be my drive
The darkness has kept me alive
Allowed me to explore dark recesses of my humanity
You call this insanity
Try to control the feelings in me
Lock me down
Drug me
Inject thoughts in my brain
Control how I think; even blink...
…Sane to your twisted mind
Not mine
I retract deep into my crypt
My sanity escapes your scalpel of righteousness virtue
My decisiveness, resolution, clarity from confusion
This illusion of a world that isn’t real
I fear I’m the only one left that still can
