The Aneurism

Foreign creature in my head
Won’t leave until I am dead
Tangled deep within
Creating a chaotic din
Blasting color, sparking pain
Melting away my brain
Alien emotions pouring out
Angry words grow roots and sprout
This person is not me
This person making them flee
Leaving me alone with my impending doom
Over my head the knowledge looms
Soon to burst…but when?
And the fear strikes yet again
How could you pass this on to me, why?
Mother, because of you I am going to die
