The Key Poem by Mehreen Mujeeb

I want my head to be clear
And filled with melodies
Melodies of life
And how peace I am inside.

I can’t seem to deal
With untamed emotions
Things that seem real
Could just be hallucinations.

My emotions are locked
In my heart and in my mind.
They used to be perfect soul mates
But now their souls no longer exist.

What I hear and what I see
Should not affect what I believe
But now I don’t know what my heart wants
Or what my mind needs.

I know this time shall soon pass
But for now it feels that it will last.
