Prisoner Options

[Midnight Faerie]

I just sit here, waiting
In the dark depths of my mind
I just sit here, fading
Unsure of what I'll find
Demons dance before me
Faeries at my feet
I scream, but they ignore me
Afraid of what I'll meet
Black roses drip their poison
Like deadly tears they fall
I feel like a prisoner
Trapped within these walls

Held hostage by my inner world
Alone inside my head
The story of a lonely girl
Who everyone thought dead
"A few more pills won't hurt me"
Was the lie I told myself
The bottle left, still open
Lying sideways on the shelf
Now I sit here, cold and dazed
Inside my screwed up head
Running in an endless maze
'Til I am surely dead

I shall die a prisoner
To this thoughtless suicide
The goblins and the faeries laugh
As they watch me die
A prisoner to my inner world
A prisoner to myself
'Cause of the bottle left, still open
Lying sideways on the shelf.
