Fastened to Myself

Every moment
Turns into a memory 
That we can't go back to 
Except for in our minds 
Am I the only one 
Who finds life to be 
A strange complexity 
With too many turns 
And corners to get 
lost in 
Doors fly off their hinges 
whenever I walk by 
And the sky seems to 
always produce an 
ominous hue 
The wind shakes the 
trees and threaten 
a storm 
One that I could not 
walk through without 
being blown away 
Blown to pieces 
I am afraid 
to be who I am 
Not because of them 
Or for them 
For me, I am afraid 
Afraid of what may be 
If I continue to walk 
on this path 
When I know the ending 
will be my demise 
My doom, my death 
I'm getting worse 
Dear Friend 
Don't try to save me 
You can't 
Don't sympathize 
I was like this from birth 
So take me away 
Dear Serenity 
I need to be free 
from the chains 
that hold me 
and bind me 
to myself.
