Tormented Case



Tormented Case

When I come down from the high
I get frantic, lost and want to die
The day freezes and the air is hard
People pass by; nobody in the world pays regard

I forget emotion, how to feel
The thought I’ve forgotten how to love
I look at myself and see the journey until now
Never again I vow, sadness grips as I lie

Why do I mock myself, make my world base?
Even though I live in silence, in solitude, this tormented case
I stay in the darkness as night falls, longing for humanness
Darkness’s eyes merely stare deep, waiting without kindness

Wretched reality filled with consequences of debt
Payment always taken in blood or death
Strength no charlatan but a master without mercy
Justice his unbending oath, Newton his fancy
