Lost Within

Light has blinded my eyes,
Sound has deafened my ears.
Love has weakened my heart,
Hate has strengthened my fears.

What once was before me,
Is now in my past.
What now is beside me,
I'm sure it won't last.

I fear to look up,
cause I'll see that which looks down.
And the day I cannot look,
I'll be one with the ground.

I'm so lost within myself,
I don't know what to do.
The hippocrates say "come to the light",
and I respond, "Fuck You!"

I scribble these thoughts from my inner vein,
It pumps with blood and with pain.
It's times like this I could pull the plug,
...But if I did... I could never find Love.
