Inside the mind
Like the deep blue sea
A bottomless ocean 
Where thoughts run free 
Thinking of a guys
But it feels so wrong
A feeling of guilt 
The thoughts are too strong 
A hidden secret
A self inflicted lie
Not true to oneself 
But don't know why
A locked treasure chest
Waiting to be found
A mouthful of words
But the lips are bound 
Sifting through sand
In the hope of a find
Try to ignore it
Ignorance is blind
On a voyage to the journeys end
On a mission, a mind to mend
Emotions are crashing 
Like waves to the shore 
So many feeling I've yet to explore
It sounds so simple 
To write a captains log
But it's so much harder when all you see is fog 
But the days will get clearer 
The waters will calm
The mind will start healing 
Repair from self harm
The chest will be opened 
The treasure I'll find
I'll believe in myself 
And leave the guilt behind
