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.
