when the mind turns inward

and the other self turns

and it's against you

contemplation

of insignificant truths

a perception

of self condemnation

stamped upon the mind

in isolation, my thoughts grow

in solitude, an absence of light

desperation and the will to live

disconnected

desperation

and the will to live....

when the mind turns inward....

upon itself.

oh hopelessness

selfishness

desperation

and the will to live...
