Kind, Shy, funny man, Did the best that he can, To raise me to be what I am, Beautiful baby girl, Smiling every second, What everyone wants in the world Years pass, Daddy always there, Doing the best he can, Raising me to be the way I am Beautiful baby girl, A baby no more, Middle school, Troubled; Diminished smile, Daddy where are you? No reply Daddy's soul has left his eyes No more doing what he can to raise me how I am, Doing what he can, To stop the voices in his head Searching for cameras, In the walls, Paranoia controls his all, Delusions President, Police, Mom, Everyone out to get him, Stumbling upon his daughters sketchbook, Sketch unfinished; Headless body Voices, Convincing to be dismembered, Out to get him; Dismember him, Paranoia growing, Irritability as well, Mommy a victim, Strangled, breathless, By a body with no soul Life flashes amongst her eyes, Children being married, Awakes, Escapes, Daddy's alone, In a mental home Not for long, Returns with medicine to fix the harm Daddy? Void of soul replaced Stability, Daddy regained, Medicine disposed, Voices grow, They're going to **** me, The 9th, Facing doom, Departure to a highway overpass, Aimlessly walking, The edge Concerned bystandards, Authorities called, Shouting, Scared, No way out, A fall, A crash, Daddy, Is dead.

Daddy - Reaped by schizophrenia
Kind, Shy, funny man, Did the best that he can, To raise me to be what I am, Beautiful baby girl, Smiling every second, What everyone wants in the world Years pass, Daddy always there, Doing the best he can, Raising me to be the way I am Beautiful baby girl, A baby no more, Middle school, Troubled; Diminished smile, Daddy where are you? No reply Daddy's soul has left his eyes No more doing what he can to raise me how I am, Doing what he can, To stop the voices in his head Searching for cameras, In the walls, Paranoia controls his all, Delusions President, Police, Mom, Everyone out to get him, Stumbling upon his daughters sketchbook, Sketch unfinished; Headless body Voices, Convincing to be dismembered, Out to get him; Dismember him, Paranoia growing, Irritability as well, Mommy a victim, Strangled, breathless, By a body with no soul Life flashes amongst her eyes, Children being married, Awakes, Escapes, Daddy's alone, In a mental home Not for long, Returns with medicine to fix the harm Daddy? Void of soul replaced Stability, Daddy regained, Medicine disposed, Voices grow, They're going to **** me, The 9th, Facing doom, Departure to a highway overpass, Aimlessly walking, The edge Concerned bystandards, Authorities called, Shouting, Scared, No way out, A fall, A crash, Daddy, Is dead.
The story of the loss of my father from schizophrenia and suicide. I'm hoping to raise awareness to mental illness, if you or anyone you know is struggling with mental illness please be there for them, & pursue them to seek treatment. I would hate for the heartbreak of another beautiful life to be reaped from such crippling illness.
