All in my head

I gave my all and it was never appreciated
I spilled my passion, soaked up by those who took advantage of me
I was used more as an object and less of a human
My heart and brain took the bullet

Creating a wound that will never heal
Not with alcohol
Not with drugs
Not even with time.

When midnight shows up around the corner
Found in my room, I’m pacing back and forth
Taking in deep breaths of invisible smoke,
as my forest is burning down from old haunts

Before I know it, I’m found where life screams perfection
My friends are back, even the ones I lost in the burning forest
I finally feel like a human
Most importantly, I feel

…..its 6am and I’m awake in my bed
Holding the pieces of a broken heart
In the middle of a burning forest
That’s all in my head…
