I Wish

"Everything’s in your head

You’ll be okay.”

Words I know all too well

And I wish they were true

I wish it was all in my head

That its effects didn’t dig claws

Into my everyday life

I wish these voices would stay voices

And not morph into images

Emotions

Once I closed my eyes

I wish the medicine I’m prescribed

Actually worked 

I wish I was normal

That's all I want

Author's Note

I have a muse for my roleplay blogs and he has schizophrenia (The voice in my head has voices in his head) so we wrote a poem.

:D Great write, sweetie :) I feel like I can really relate to this... In one way or another.. But great write any way :)

Is this not spoken from your own personal experience? It comes across so genuinely, I really like it, and if your note is saying you've written it in-character I am doubly impressed.

Thank you! I was worried about how well I represented it, because I've never had schizophrenia and I wasn't sure how it worked, exactly. I'm so happy it came across as genuine :)
