Dissociative Identity Disorder
I am a house with many doors, Each locked with keys I do not own— The laughter of a child upstairs, A weeping girl who walks alone. One sings to stars in trembling light, Another rages at the moon, And I, the quiet one they fear, Watch dawn arrive too soon it's near. The mirror shifts—my face is new, My name a sound I...

Dissociative Amnesia
I walk within a shadowed hall, Where echoes fade before recall, The walls are bare, the mirrors blind, A labyrinth, a maze in my own mind. Fragments are scattered like broken glass, Like a thousand leaves beneath the sun, I search for truths I cannot find, Each moment lost, each thread unlined. The years slip by, a voiceless tide, They took my past and...

Dismissed! Battles laid down for a dissociative survivor
Thinking about us I come undone Looking back I don’t know Whether we lost or won Voices in my mind That I just can’t translate But I know I’ll learn to appreciate I’m not laying blame I’m not keeping score I just wish I could find Who I was before All was taken And more was lost A dissociative fugue Cost us the lot What am I supposed...

Dissociative Identity Disorder took care of that
A little girl lay still Quietly in her bed Fighting the screams That roared inside her head Hiding the fear within Eyes sealed shut Breath contained Too scared to move She can longer stay Too distressed Her little brain floats away Splitting itself Forming new selves to take the pain Anything to survive This torturous hell It's happening to another now She's safe Her psyche remains intact Shielded from the events Amnesia has...

Blood Stained Chalice
Swimming in a pool of blood- Baptized in my own sins. Dancing with my demons Almost as though we were friends. Soaking in my misery- And I cannot evade. The memories inside of me - That I relive every day. I've tried to understand. Why I deserved the wrath of rage. Or why I had to suffer- By the hands of the...

Dissociative Identity Disorder
I have a friend, A friend that I never knew off Not until he showed his face on the mirror And he talked to me "Tell me what's your deepest fear Is it knowing that you have no control Or that I'm the one in control And you just the vessel to pass my message Tell me why do you hold...

I met the new soul I was due to become, This morning, around about two. He was beginning to redesign my thoughts, He was going to make me feel new, When I thought, hang on, I haven’t finished Creating and being all that is me, I haven’t finished building everything That is fun and friendly and free. So we...

Dissociative
If scars are meant to be scrubbed out, Then days are meant for dissociation. And age is how long it’s been since you made it. I can’t choke them off like words I could never Jar out of myself. The light broke off— I can no longer stand to watch my hands Tremble. I knew you were a goddess the second you...
