Shattered Mind

Talking to shadows, trying to find my light

Echoes in my mind, battling every night

Broken pieces scattered inside my head

Silent screams, tears I’ve never shed

Got demons in my mind, they like to play

Laughing at my pain, they never stray

Friends say I’m strong, I hide what I feel

Behind a calm face, it’s hard to be real

But deep down I’m fighting, trying to stay alive

Struggling to keep hope and survive

All I want is to shine bright and free

Break these chains, let the real me be

Facing my demons, I won’t run or hide

Won’t let the darkness define my life

Rock bottom’s lessons, I learned to pray

Picking up pieces, finding my way

They see me as prey, but I’ll break away

Find my own path, claim a new day

Shy to speak but loud in my mind

Healing’s a journey, I’m trying to find

Demons may laugh but I’ll stand tall

Peace in my heart, I want it all
