We argue all day, my brain and I These thoughts scream in my head I want to die “No you want to die” Wait, who said that, get out Get. Out. Why can’t I escape this prison My mind traps me, tortures me I need to make it out of here But how do I escape my own mind? “You’re worthless” No, stop please. I know. I. Know. I claw and scream, but only I can hear myself. Why am I laughing? “You deserve this” No, no I don’t I want to leave. But maybe I deserve it… I. Do. Maybe it’s best to be trapped in my brain It keeps everyone safe right? I deserve it, right? “Yes” Okay I can’t stay, wait no what am I saying. I’ll. Stay.

Okay

Why can’t I escape this prison My mind traps me, tortures me I need to make it out of here But how do I escape my own mind? “You’re worthless” No, stop please. I know. I. Know.
