Falling Apart

Falling Apart.

Save me from insanity
My thoughts are shifting shapelessly
My shadow creeps and crawls behind
The scattered fragments of my mind

The tentacles of tension tear
My fading flesh and greying hair
My clamped shut eyes convey confusion
Blindly blanking out delusion.

Shattered nerves and shaking hands
Praying someone understands
Fists worn down and throat bone dry
Too tight to scream, too numb to cry.
