World inside my mind

My prison of shame,
The shackles of fear.
Chains of the past,
A future nowhere near.

My shadows of guilt,
The void of suffering.
Darkness of my mind,
Accept my offering.

My room of silence,
The chamber of loneliness.
A home built for the wicked,
Protected and soundless.

My plain of despair,
The Marsh of sadness.
A valley carved by tears,
And filled with madness.

My castle of grief,
The keep of anxiety.
A fortress made of stone,
Where I reside quietly.

Author's Note
This is a poem I made years ago. But even now it stil strikes me with the same feelings as when I wrote it.
