A Mindless Villanelle
Location
Here I sit in my dark, empty mind
The colorless land in which I reside
I fight and fight to leave my demons behind
A desperate attempt to open the blind
But the light is not on my side
Here I sit in my dark, empty mind
Looking for relief that I can not find
From myself I try to hide
I run and run to leave my demons behind
In the dark are creatures of another kind
The void, haunted with those who have died
Here I hide in my dark, empty mind
For relief I have desperately pined
Relentlessly for help I have cried
I've tried and tried to leave my demons behind
Again in my thoughts I am confined
Hoping and waiting for the pain to subside
Here I am trapped in my dark, empty mind
And I have failed to leave my demons behind
