mental illness
i smile
but the man in the corner
begs to differ
so i cry
and he, in turn
smiles.
the floor is cold
as i sit naked on it
knees to my chest
crying, weeping for days
and the voices get closer
and it comes to a ******
and then i take my medication
and go to work
no more noise
no more men
i brought her home
but forgot my medication
i slipped up again
i answered their question aloud
she ran
i never wanted to scare her
i just wanted to love her
but she ran like all the rest
i stared at the door
and i saw him flash in the corner
i turn
but he is nowhere
so i beg them to come back
but there is silence
and nothing more
