Schizophrenic

Schizophrenic Darkness floods a broken mind Screaming out for calmness to find Sanity drowns in torrential tears Crowded in loneliness that no one hears With open mouth words haunt the air Medication needed ,but to dark to care. Menacing shadows breed violence assured As notice is taken of the voices heard Changes are rife with character sway Always forgotten some would say. Two people present but one body and soul One taken over by madness so cold Unreasonable words drip rashly from tongue Actions and gestures alarmingly strong Care arrives to calm and console Medication induced for rest and resolve Effectiveness swift as chaos retreats As darkness and anger take a back seat A tormented mind rests once more For exactly how long we are never so sure. D.J.L
