Her reality

Just a little something loosely based off of the symptoms of insanity

Insanity,

A state of mental illness; madness
Paranoia, anxiety, and hallucinations

She can’t tell reality from an illusion anymore

She can hear them in the back of her mind

Her own personal monsters that live in her head

She screams for them to shut up but they only seem to get louder

She can’t tell what is real anymore

It starts like a panic attack

Then her reality is altered and she can hear them

She gasped for air as though she were drowning

Her fingers rake her skin to try and wake up herself up

It never works, no matter how hard she try

She can’t wake up from this nightmare of hers

But yet she can’t seem to go to sleep

She is trapped in a suspended state

She tears herself apart to try and feel human again

Maybe if she cut a little deeper the voices will stop

This time maybe if she listened to them they will stop

She just wanted them to stop, she dreamed of silence

For a moment silence comes

Her mind is clear and she sees her reality

The blood dripping down her arms

This is her reality now
