Mirrors of My Mind

Mirrors of My Mind

A Poem by Sara Mercury
"

a song that's a first-hand description of life with paranoid schizophrenia, or its lesser version, schizo-affective disorder

"
A thought appears and stays in my mind
Won't go away until I find
A reason why
To satisfy
Sometimes there is no logic to be found

Is there a monster living in my head?
No place to hide beneath the bed
No memory 
Inside of me
Of things that they say happened, if they did

Reflections in the mirrors of my mind
They reveal
That bad things only happen
Doesn't matter how I feel

There are no windows to my soul
Look beyond my eyes
You see only lies
Is it just illusion or reflections
In the mirrors of my mind?

The mixture of thoughts in one's head is truly staggering in its variety. I couldn't begin to make sense of them all! As you correctly write there is one thought that always springs to mind, and in my case, it's the Female body!
