![]() Mental IllnessesA Poem by Triston Taylor![]() This about sums up my brain situation.![]()
Let's change topic. Talk about nothing but facts. Fact is, nothing is more accurate then feelings, nothing else unseen stands above ceilings. Honesty is I've never stopped being depressed. I have voices screaming silently to all but me. I feel my broken heart collide with my lungs sometimes filling my airway with echoing sobs. I suffer through insomnia, too to drift to terror. I live this life physically making my own joy, I'll live the rest of my life wishing I was again a boy. Not a teen nor baby. The boy who always found a way to smile. That boy got lost in my mind's dungeon. That boy is still dearly missed. Happiness, even the word brings light to most. Happiness, what I plead for in prayer. Depression, the giant black widow webbing a blockade to freedom. Such a venomous bite with such a sweet after taste. Suicide isn't the only solution, There is suffering too. I choose too suffer for the ones I love, even after most choose release. I've had so many chances, hell, still do, yet I still refuse. I still choose abuse. I still choose to let life smack me and scream "F**k You!" everyday. I choose this because of the tears that will flood sleeves. I choose this to make sure the few I love still never stop smiling. For if I was to leave I'd suffer more knowing they're pain, for it's almost the same pain I embrace. It's the pain that gears my mind. I'd rather live through this pain till my end then to watch them form my emotional twin.
