I wish I knew what was wrong with me
Sometimes I wish that I couldn’t see
I wish I was blind to everything
I wish I was blind to everyone
I just want to escape this life
I just want to be someone else
I don’t want to feel this pain anymore
I don’t want to feel anything at all
What is it that I am fighting for
Is it freedom, or is it something more
Maybe I will find the answer
Or maybe I will never get that far
I guess it doesn’t really matter
I am still locked inside a cage
With agony trapped inside
Mixed with sorrow and with rage
Here I am again, back and forth I go
I would love to feel peace for just a moment
I would love for my heart rate to slow
I give up on hopes and wishes
I give up on dreams today
I just want to lay here tonight
Dead inside as I wait for the sun to rise

Loving the poetry Nyx!
