Confusion is what I feel
tell me how do I deal
with the thoughts that plague me
tell me how do I get free
from the memories and pain
that haunt me and add no gain

I can’t sleep at night
I toss and turn and fight
with dreams and thoughts that torment
they are with me every single moment
I try and escape but they persist
try as I may I cannot resist

My mind has become my Achilles heel
every little thing I think and feel
has me living in a little piece of hell
my mind rings and resounds like a bell
what I feel and think is vivid and clear
filling me with intense fear
