Schizophrenia Poems

Schizophrenia

I lived once in a land before the light
where shadows ruled and terror was the king
Sable dark did fall upon me every night
and flittermouse did brush me with their wing.

There was no day to shine away the fear
so terror ruled, malignant, endless black;
eyes closed or open, demons still appear
and, as in life, to stab me

Be Me, I Dare You

A warning to possession.

To the demons chancing claim of skin: I dare you to take this body, and dare you to take this mind.

Better yet, I beg of you, to claim each for a ride.

Would you like to suffer reason? 
Suffer sound of self each second?
Or rather suffer thoughtless sense, 
Even you could not have

Inner World Of A Tormented Mind

Like a dust that has been blown away
If I only had the chance to really say
But I can only stand on the dock of a bay
Within this soul there is a empty world inside
With no one near or anybody far
Not even a single wound or a mere scar
No love, hate or pride
Just a place where

Curing schizophrenia

Jekyll and Hyde decided to entwine,
remaining at all times fully aware,
that come what may, they needed to align 
with pulse of love, for which they must outstare
cravings of ego, which they must decline,
by remaining still, life’s ultimate dare.
In the womb of love opposites dissolve,
paving way for both of them to evolve.

The Dreaded Schizophrenic

A shadow walks where silence bends,
With whispering ghosts that call as friends.
The mirror lies with fractured grace,
A thousand eyes behind one face.

He hums a song that no one hears,
Drowning doubt in static fears.
Clocks melt slow, then race ahead—
Each second stitched with ancient dread.

A prophet’s tongue in twisted speech,
Reaches truths we cannot reach.
Reality’s thread, too thin

Escaping The Silence

Vitamins, chained to shallow waters. Buried in a cave. Below the world. I stand ready. Waiting for more. Seeds of sorrow planted deep.
Mercy or remorse. Shadows aside I sense you near me.
Nightly rain sparks my soul. Sheer pain take over the globe.
Holding fast to what brings comfort. Joy and Bliss belong to us all.
Ascend the

I’ve Been Listening to Your Eyes

They speak in a language you don’t realize you’re fluent in,
or maybe I am the one mistranslating—
pulling meaning from glances like thread from unraveling cloth,
sewing together something that was never there.

But what if it was?

What if I am hearing what you refuse to say,
if your eyes betray you in ways your lips never will?
If I

Caught among the Wild

His meds kept Andrew sane
He lived with us, no one to blame
But one day he refused his pills
I knew what that meant, a battle of wills.

In a few days voices told Andrew to leave.
He vanished, left a note I didn’t believe.
I tracked his SIM card to Idaho.
I had lots on my plate but I had

Schizophrenia

Talking to themselves, unseen threads,
Weaving webs that tangle truth and lies,
A mind adrift in fractured, stormy seas,
Where loved ones cast out lifelines, but are refused.

Through hollow eyes, they search for someone lost,
A soul entangled in a world of broken glass,
We ache to hold the pieces, make them whole,
But they refuse the balm that quiets the

Darkness Over Taken By Light

Waves of terror shock my core. Divided by silence ever more.
Echoes of rocks falling from my grave, A river flowing toward another day.
As time moves on, the shelter holds us forever strong. 
Questions of madness arise and I am Wakened into this morning fright.
When I sang songs from a distance, they warned me I was

Delusion

Delusion must be a comforting thing;
To see the world just how you like.
To give you purpose every day
And let reality take a hike.

But don't be troubled 
When I say that;
Delusion
Is just
fine
For the psychopaths and the egg shell brained, swimming in life's brine

The Rain

I f*cking love the rain.
Storms are even better. 
I love to hear of your canceled plans
As you stand there, getting wetter

 I adore the miserable faces it brings
To everyone but me
I ache for the sound of chain it makes
As it rattles absently 

If my friend is joined by thunder, lightning, floods and all;
I feel awash

Begin The Dance

Washing the clouds away, dreaming of lemon and minty tea. Open to follow the tide. Waiting for lights to guide my way. Yoking to paradise. Junking the fires into the rain. Kneeling to Heaven on silent praise. Holding my peace as love echoes her name. She is the moonlit star, the shadow Queen who defeated

Love Divides

In concert with the dimming sun
I rise to greet the day
Walk fast in joyous warmth
Under stars refrain
Heights of shadows coat the moon
Turning toward the ocean waves
In concert with the morning gloom
My heart now seems to fade

Schizophrenia

When did you start hearing voices,
when did they start making choices
to determine your world

and crack that first bottle
or did the first pipe full smash on the throttle
sending you racing

downhill into the unescapable maze,
driving deeper into the dense purple haze
of paranoia?

I don't see the people you say are watching,
or the man living under the floorboards
and the
