At Peace
At peace
Drowning slowly at first then fast
Deep dark corners grow so vast
Death seems pleasant as a task
Fluids around my brain ask and ask
Tomorrow may be better but today rasps
I hear the sound of talking passed
The edge of conversations whisper cast
In my mind it shouts and laughs
I’m not getting better please end my farce
Schizophrenia is a world that you cannot grasp
Inside I’m dying through constantly wearing a mask
Every time I shake it my episodes are worse than the last
I am almost ready now to rid this turmoil that leads only to one path
Oh lord forgive me for I want to be free from darkness and hear angels hark
I want to surrender my life to be forever celestial and at peace in my soul and heart.
