Inside looking out

By DarkPaladine

I am now on the inside looking out.
Here people listen to me scream and shout.
No I am not here because I might be insane.
I have people here to help me get the trash
out of my brain.
I once helped to put people away. Now it is
my turn to be put away.I may only be here for
a short stay,But at least I will get the trash
out of my brain.
There are lots of people here inside.We talk
to each other side by side.Like me they put
themselves away so the insiders can help us
deal with the trash in our brains.
We are all different we visitors here,we
hope to be better when we leave here.
I plan to go back to my job with a better
understanding of what people want.
I now understand that I am not alone,If I
need help I can pick up the phone.
I now know to this day there are insiders
who can help me deal with the trash in my
brain.
I now know that I no longer have to scream
and shout for I am on the inside looking out.
