An Innocent Soul

An innocent soul's placed under enormous strain. For reality's warped in his abnormal brain. As a bastard of lust, he was rejected at birth. And born schizophrenic his life held little worth. Delusional and trapped his anxiety shows. For he's always confused, combating highs and lows. He hears inner voices telling him what to do. And he can't distinguish what is false from what's true. In his mind, he's a child trying his very best. But as a man, he cries cause he's not like the rest. 8/5/2015

Ah....you capture the pain and anguish well, Emile. Is this for the mental illness contest? Mental illness is so often a taboo subject. I'm glad you could write about it with such depth. Bless you
