The Wall in the Mind

Craving longings satisfied only by further need
A lust (for thrills) fed by a desire to still my heart
A wanton chase of my own destruction
Long nights spent seeking day
Long days when I sought to run
To run further than I could
Though more than yesterday
Pictures of you
I burned
Hoping
To bring you closer
As I drove you away
