Mindless

By Katherine Lightwood

Left all that life that used to be mine,
Lost all that courage and crossed all that line.
Became a prisoner of that forgotten time,
Blanketed all my emotions in this senseless rhyme.
Conscious efforts and no way to define,
My once sunlit sky has no stars that could shine.

Searching my heart in my broken hollow chest,
My soul is senselessly grieving, has no way to rest.
Lying to my self, it's only for the best,
This silence has chilled me like the wind of the wild west.
The world around me say I am angry and stressed,
They don't know the reason for my grief and my quest.

I have worn a facade of love and kindness,
I am suffocating in my pain and newfound blindness.
But the memories of that time seems timeless,
That still gives me hope in this inferno that is endless.
So, my memories are frozen in time even though I am thoughtless,
They call me a maniac, I am just mindless.
