Schizophrenia (my best friend) pt.1

by Mild insomnia   Jan 2, 2005


She runs through my dreams,
And haunts all my thoughts,
She knows everything,
And knows exactly what I want.

I cannot hide,
For she’s deep inside,
I’m so sick and tired,
But still here, she resides.

I see my shadow on the wall,
Is it me? Or is it her after all?
In the light of dark events,
I sit upon sanity’s fence.
Knowing not which way to turn,
For she will burn,
When it’s over and it’s the end.
She’s the devil all dressed in red,
And she was my best friend.

She won’t let me breathe,
And fills me with doubt,
She says she won’t leave,
Til I have heard her out.

I used to have faith,
And trust within her,
I’ve now lost my way,
And it’s my life that she’s cursed.

In the mirror I see myself,
But I’m not sure of my mental health,
In the light of dark events,
I sit upon sanity’s fence.
Another voice in my own head,
I can’t contend,
She knows things I wish I never said,
She’s the devil all dressed in red,
And she was my best friend.
