Mind the mind

Why am I stuck
Stuck so bad
Bad, as I have ever known
Known to few , for many unknown
Unknown, yet it pins me down
Down, down ,down

My mind is rust
Rust,  as correded it can get
Get me peace
Peace of mind at the least
Least for a second
Second is too long
Long enough
Enough to take my distress away

My head is pressed
Pressed with chains
Chains that smother
Smother the life out
Out of everything
Everything and anything
Anything that ever made me smile

Smile that refuses to come back
Back to this old face
Face that has become weary
Weary of this life
Life which turned out to be just a word
Word with no sense

Birds on my arm
Arm with wings
Wings which refuse to fly
Fly, take me high
High up above
Above this very thing
Thing that sucks out my dreams

Dreams with a mind play
Play with my emotions
Emotions, giving me nightmares
Nightmares which are routine
Routine since long years

Years where I have to search
Search for happiness
Happiness which was rare
Rare , precious, scarce 
Scarce, being turned to less
Less, less, less
