Schizo; Caught in Two Worlds

Aarthi Karanam posted under PenMuse-37 Poetry on 2022-01-21



Some days, I feel this roiling sadness,  Somber clouds of languish, imprison me in gloom  Strange voices whisper sucking away gladness  Shadows guzzle up my soul; conjuring doom...  Ominous thoughts flit across the canvas of mind  Obfuscating any chance of good coming in  Onerous task negotiating life's grind  O Lord! mindfield explodes, high odds to win....  Mystically I'm lured into some strange heart  Magically, I enter a new universe!  Mellifluous fantasies, swirl I stand apart...  Medicines drown both my worlds; boon or a curse?  Yay! Some days, I'm conquering every bane  Yet, on other days, I forget even my name  Yearn to suppress alogia, to feel sane  Yes, I'm living in two worlds, playing a new game!   Penmancy gets a small share of every purchase you make through these links, and every little helps us continue bringing you the reads you love!
