Schizophrenia. ( Owed To Tom.)

Trapped in your mind,
A wall of loneliness,You hid behind.
Your heart was big,
Your world was unkind.
Outside your head,
You could not reach,
Even with your power of speach,
you tried your best to us to teach,
How we could insight,
Your inner light....

Inside Your world of loneliness....


You had your good days, you had your bad,
You felt diabolic, your world was sad.
You brought me in, I felt so MAD,
Your beauty way beyond compare,
Your mentality,
Trapped,
Behind your stare,
I told you I would always be there,
But you locked your-self in, way beyond compare.

Inside your world of loneliness....


I saw your mind, when sleeping eye's stared,
You left your body,
Back at you,,,, You dared.
The devil, to him, you'd let a shout.
Come out you Bastard !!.
Come out, Come out.
A fight you flared,
When deamons dared....

Inside your world of loneliness....


And all the time I held you tight,
I cradled you from night, to light.
But still your deamon, you had to fight.
In my arms of comfort,
No delight.
Sadness being your guiding light,
You lost,
Inside my arms I'd hold you tight.

Around your world of loneliness....


You had your batchelors and your Masters,
A Teacher's career,
Your future disasterous,
A party,
Celebrating,
Your coming diploma.
The L,S,D, induced your coma.
From college in Germany,
Back to Mayo.
Broken hearted, your Parents,
Thier son, they don't know.
Into the mental home you'd to go,

To meet your world of loniness....


A knife in your chest, you pushed in so far,
You said to the Devil,
I'm driving, My Car.
I'll bring you to heaven,
Way up past the stars.
You'll meet your creator,
He'll crush your demenor,
I'll get you, You Bastard,
I'll kill schizophreina,
You left us that day,
with the blood on you chest....

Now you're in a world Tom,

Of your Happiness.....

Wow !! What a gripping & sad write.2725dl...mental illness such painful thing to watch & hard to understeer since its not a physical ailment....everyone suffers but the ultimate suffering is &I is the person who's living it. I don't think its taken as serious , as someone who's suffered a heart attack or cancer...or other diseases. I understand working in a hospital setting how difficult & challenging it is....so sorry to. hear of such a tragic loss of life. ....thanks for sharing a delicate subject & bringing awareness to such a sad disease schizophrenia....hug comfort angel

thanks Guys, That chap was a teacher, he celebrated his achievements with a party took L.S.D and it blew the mind of him, at 42 he could go on no more and took a knife to his chest and he did the un-thinkable....
Yes mental health weather born that way or later induced is so sad....
God bless those that suffer....
