Sanity

Sanity...the thing I lack. The thing I can't comprehend...The voices in my head....the memories of the dead...the steady flow of time...I look to myself for guidance, but only find the evil I truly am. I am a monster to those who know me, and I'm dead to others. I walk alone therefor I stand alone. My bright hazel eyes give myself away. There's no hiding what I truly am. Sometimes I make friends and they only last for a few days. Then they see the man they call God created. I can kill, I can steal, I can lie, I can cheat. My heart is gone, it pumped its final blood. It shriveled to pieces...dust to the wind. No more can I go on the pain inside it makes me wanna die!!! I can't stand living this way put down this monster!!! I reach out my hand to the only man who ever granted me any SANITY!! But he's dead....his image disappears in my head. My arm reaches out, but I just grab air...I fall to my knees and grab ahold of my hair...I can't take this anymore!!!! I scream...as the only answers are the voices and the choices that I made!!! I can't stand this life!!! Someone please save me!! Put me out of my misery...before my inSANITY....does it for me...
