Schizophrenetic

By Tagen

My hands
Feel so foreign.

I need to cut them off.

My soul is heavy,
I need to breathe air.

The night screams,
So I do, too.

I am (not) alone in this.

I AM NEVER ALONE.

Shadow people,
With their telepathy,
Laughing at me,
Possessing me.

I'm in love with him,
But he would just break my wings,

My heart and my hands, too.


Fuck,
I need a cigarette.

    This was a great little snippet of insanity. Like looking through a keyhole into someone’s mental health. *hands you a cigarette*
