Shadows in the Mind

Whispers in the dark, questions in my mind

Trying to find the truth, leave the chaos behind

Why'd they message, just to see if I'd slip?

Caught in a web of thoughts, on this mental trip

Controlled by demons, or just my twisted view?

Seeking out the clarity, trying to stay true

Overthinking, weight heavy on my chest

Vapid words floating, putting me to the test

Loving my roots, with a fiery passion deep

Dark, emotional, secrets I keep

Bestie, you and I, deep beyond the surface

Too smart for our own good, but we're worth it

Stop the noise, block the world away

Find peace, breathe another day

Meditating, I seek the calm inside

Too much stimulus, too much outside

Shoot the stress away at the firing range

Blick! Blick! Feel the shots, erase the pain

Let them go, set my mind free

Dark and deep, that's just me

In this chaos, I’ll find my way

Until then, I’ll stay brave today
