My Soul's Asylum
by Keisha Davis

Leaving this place of sorrow and guilt behind
I escape to a place deep inside my mind
No longer am I tormented or confused
Only accepted and loved by dark and distorted beings like myself

No longer shunned or looked down upon
No longer treated like a diseased freak of nature
My black clothes and make-up aren't so strange here
My state of mind is no longer a threat against human kind

Love and lust have found me at last
I'm no longer scared by my past
My soul has found it's happy place
The light that escaped from darkness has been embraced

I found the truth
I found the light
No longer shocked and surprised
By what I find in my nineteen year old mind

My soul's asylum
I here to rest my weary head
The pain and torment of the world no longer eats away at me
This is the place where the last bits of my sanity won't fade
