Backslide
May 21, 2011
I am trapped on the inside
This dark black numbness is where I reside
deeper and deeper I slide
Farther and farther
Black mist caresses my body
everything it touches it now owns
I recede into my mind
I cease to be who I once was
Happiness has long since died
I am unknown even to myself
Laid to rest
Deep within my mind
