Thoughts swirl

And mix

Blending

Into a chaotic mess

Unrecognizable

As a mind

-.-

Eyes

Are vacant

Not seeing

Staring into space

Not reacting

To anything at all

-.-

Sweat glistens

On a brow

Beading

Sliding around the curve

Of a cheek

Dripping down

-.-

A battle

Internal

Takes place

In the mind of

A victim

Wanting freedom

-.-

They do not succeed
