Interlocked from Redemption Arc by Hurts to Lose

the thought of another mistake that leads to yet
another tragedy

distraught with no sign
of escape
only to be deemed
lack of sanity

why can't i express my feelings
to the ones who love me

i promise ill keep fighting
these damn thoughts im having

an internal struggle
always happening within me
but i still try my hardest
to get through yet another day

oppressed in this world
designed to fail from the get go
but here i am regardless
to shine within this darkness

day by day
the thoughts keep fading
hoping they will stay
locked away at bay

maybe then ill be
able to think clearly
no more anxiety
constantly eating away

at me
leaving nothing
but bone
im worn
alone
in this chamber
full of strangers

always caught in the crossfire
of my internal conflict
unsure on what I require
to reign the champion

under the magnifier
expected to be perfect
lost sight of what I desire
the pursuit of happiness

I hope
that you know
I love you

I couldn't have gotten this far
if it wasn't for everything
you've done for me
I owe this all to you
