i have come a long way
to a distant place far far away
from where i used to live
and from what i used to do;
Life is a rosy dream,
happiness and joy aplenty,
everything that i wanted and
everything is as i had hoped for;
Everything is as i had hoped for,
everything is as i had longed for,
everything is except for the turmoil
that plagues me inside every day;
I sleep, i smile, i laugh, i play, i eat and i live
in a constant state of fear,
a fear that i did not ask for,
and one that i did not longed for;
killing me from inside,
silently screaming for it to stop,
i am devoured by my own inner self,
day in and day out;
haunting and taunting me,
time and time again,
they run helter and skelter
in the deep recess of my mind;
it’s just a state of mind,
i tell myself
hoping to erase these thoughts
of fear that hinges on the edge of my happiness;
Trapped inside my own mind,
eclipsed by my fear,
tears weep without a choice
hoping to vanquish (flood) this struggle within;

You have your way with words and was able to capture the emotions.
Keep it up!

everyday i sit and wait
waiting for my prince
but yet he has yet to come
and later i sat and hensed
i got up wipe the dirt of my dress
and listen to the sounds in my head
i dont need a prince
for yet i am my own saver
and yet to this day my prince has not come
but i’ll worry about that later
