occam's razor

Anxiety is
Crippling me
Quietly cutting me at the knees

We take so much that
We break at the bend
These violent delights have the most violent ends

Chemically embalanced
While I suffer in the silence
The white walls surrounding me
They sing the songs of the sirens
It tries to
Lull me to to sleep the
Straight jacket smothering me
Keeps me comfortingly at peace

Self medicated
I don't have the words
To explain the reasons why
I don't ever seem to learn
I tried to put a blanket over mental health
But I can't expect forgiveness
When I can forgive my fucking self
A band aid cannot fix a leak in the dam
Existence unraveling and I'm hanging
By a strand

Take a peak through the veil
See all the bullshit I refuse to help
Everything is gonna be alright
Is just a lie that we convinced ourselves
Time doesn't heal the wounds
It distorts all the memories
That we try to hold on to
I haven't been myself
Since June 24th 2012
