<33

Everywhere I go they are there
The voices that is
They follow me like vermin
These voices do not say nice things
Why are all these people staring at you?
You are worthless
They tell me to do bad things
Steal
Beat
Murder
The voices in my head claw at me
I feel them ripping into my mind
I tell them to stop
Why do they say such mean things?
But I don’t take my pills
They don’t help
All the medicine does is make my head spin
Everything goes foggy
The doctors say I have to
They don’t understand
Understand what it’s like to be controlled be a voice that’s not theirs
When I don’t take the pills the voices get worse
The want me to kill
I try to get the voices out
Once I tried to smash my head against a brick wall
I did that until red matted my hair
Blood drenches my clothes as I sit here now
The voices told me to write one last thing for the world
Every finds what a schizophrenic writes to be so amusing
As I drop the pen to my lap they’re gone
My mind is blank
The voices are gone
I’m gone too
I won’t be missed
