Going Crazy

Staring into empty space,
trying not to think.
Another time, another place,
trying not to sink.

Trying not to fall away,
from all that I hold dear.
Deep into insanity,
the deepest darkness here.

Slipping off this fragile rope,
hanging by frail thread.
Slowly begining to break,
the darkness in my head.

Slipping into my past,
into my own heart.
While together, I was ok,
but broken while apart.

Shattered as the mirror,
lying on the floor.
Banging on the encasing walls,
fighting the locked door.

Keeping just above it,
while around me my blood runs.
Like staying a step above the flood,
while for everything down comes.

And so I'll stay here,
above the something too deep.
Thinking of you and me, suffering.
Trying not to weep.
