Mental Break-Down

By Bloody_Hands

No emotion
Filtering through
Mask of life
Hiding away

Confrontation
Cornered by anger
Demanding
Another way

Feelings blocked
A dam of tears
One wrong word
All breaks apart

No more secrets
Everything out
Open to all
Unable to help

Phone call
Pick up
Hello? Yes?
Depression?

Help needed
Take the pill
Make all better
Just for now

Talk, talk
Past abuse
Problems surface
Need more help

Return again
More revealed
Masks shatter
Pain shows

Relax, Relax
Tell the story
Begin again
All the same

No solution
Clear at all
More pills
Take them all

Too many things
All too fast
So much confusion
Leave me alone

My mind breaks
Your pressure blinds
Everything closed
Hide from all

Go away, Go away
Leave and run
Too much to take
Too much to feel

Mental break-down
Eyes stare blank
Hidden away
From everything

No more thought
Or any fear
No more anger
It ends right here
