​

You promised to stand in the storm of my mind,

To help decode the static I leave behind.

"I will never leave," was the anchor you threw,

A beautiful lie I made myself believe was true.

But today the anchor shattered to dust,

Trading your patience for sudden disgust.

A cold rejection disguised as a plea for space,

Leaving me stranded in this suffocating place.

You demand room to breathe while I start to choke,

Watching the promises we built turn to smoke.

The ultimate trap of a trusting mind:

Left to freeze in the space you left behind.

The ultimate trap of a trusting mind:

May I come in?"

"Yes, step inside."

"May I sit down?"

"Yes, do not hide."

"May I lean close?"

"Yes, come to me."

"May I show you..."

"...what you should see?"

"Do you like the whispers I leave in your head?"

"Yes, but they twist every word that you said."

"Open your eyes and tell me what you see."

"Wait... I see myself devouring me."

***Run to the place where the mind sings,***

***Run the place where the heart grows,***

***Run to the place where you are never alone...***

***So then, where do I go?***
