Trapped between these eyes
Mistrust, no compromise
Can't see the cause
Grasping at empty straws
Your love turned to scorn
Like a toxic thorn
Deepening despair
Psychotherapeutic care.

I struggle to be sane.

Extricate your mind
Unchain the ties that bind you
Cover up your tracks
When the world is on your back
It's time to arise
Analyze words of the wise
Realize it's not your fault
When emotion launches its assault.

Acting irrational
False accusations
Make it impossible
Frustrations.
