Glass Desert

My mind torments me
And thrashes around its cage
It longs to get out
Its piercing, agonized cries are filling my ears
I hear nothing but dark, empty silence.

Just one word would quiet the chaos
One glance would calm the pain
One smile to remind me I am worthy
One more chance to make me human again.

My mind has me captured
And drags me down a winding dark road
Down to a pit of self-destruction
My soul flees and is gone
I balk and struggle but to no avail

Won't someone dare to free me from my mind's power?
Reach out a hand and send the sorceror home?
Break the bonds my own heart has made me?
Just break the silence so I am not alone.
