Deeper

I can feel the pull,
I can feel the strain,
Fighting it causes me so much pain,
I look into the mirror and see a stranger,
He mocks me and destroys me,
It would be easier if I could end it all,
But he doesn't let me,
I can't live and I can't die,
I'm slowly drowning in a body not mine,
I can feel the chains pulling me,
Deeper and deeper,
I want to live and breath,
I want to live and laugh,
I want to live and love,
I want to be free from my mind and cage,
But the chains bind me,
They pull me,
Deeper and deeper,
Deeper and deeper,

Not alone...

...May the depth of your emotions find an expression that you can identify with. There are many of us in the struggle doing what we can.
