Dissociative Identity Disorder
I'm OK but I haven't seen mommy in awhile
Daddy said she went on a vacation
She used to always make me smile
She'd hold me and have conversation
Sometimes I get really scared at night
When daddy drinks he gets really mad
I cry and I hold my Teddy tight
Until I feel better and less sad
It hurts when he hits me with his fist
But I know it's because I misbehaved
He then grabs me by my wrists
And tells me everything will be ok
I'm sorry but its time for me to run
My friends asked if i could play
We're playing...

Emotional Recovery #1 - Progress
I am dissociative. It comes from my Bipolar disorder, anxiety, and what I believe to be some sort of trauma from my previous relationship. It lasted right at a year, we lived together for the majority of it. I was the primary provider for financial stability, household organization and cleanliness (including her), emotional support, and overall relationship security and progression through difficult times. I willingly put myself into that relationship and situation, believing it was the perfect opportunity to a) get laid and b) get into a relationship; within a month after dating, I can also...

Scent
The last
Scent
Of hope
Lingers
Like the terribly
Sweet
Dangerous
Whiff of
Secondhand smoke
Just outside
The glass door
At the hotel’s
Over-chlorinated
Four-foot-deep
Pool
That
Bittersweet realm
Where dreams
And nightmares
Concoct
This horrible
Reality

Devil's night
How can I ever get out of this labyrinth
How can I ever get out of this pain
From the dusk to the dawn
I ride on this rollercoaster
If I see the light in this side
Dark is waiting for me on the other side
I tried to find the beauty in the dark sky
But it haunts me when the clouds cover the moon
I try and try
To find the moonbeam
But all I see is the darkest night
I tremble with fear
Of losing me again and again
I breathe the gloom
And dye my lungs with the color of the night
I shout and scream
And the devil's...

weeds
the homeless grow like weeds in a post
apocalyptic garden
corporate America crawling so far up
our governments ass that not even
a nuclear enigma can unblock their
shit
lies, misinformation seeding confusion,
the plague and power of social
media
in AI. the dead will
not remain dead...
the dead will be reconstructed,
reconstituted, rearranged for
the pleasures of the stinking
bored masses
facts will become like candles blown
dead on stale birthday
cake
then...

not quite beat
the wind might knock me over,
or someone on the street;
I preferred not to go out,
but hell you’ve got to eat,
so here’s me, on my own too (two) wobbly feet

Insomnolent
The river we drove into
does it exist
did I dream this reality
We flow into the day
open
cloudless
sky
otherworldly blue
They watched the stars
fall from your head
and become prisms
on the ceiling
on the wall
From birth we are hypnotized
by inventions
tied tighter and tighter
to clock hands
Seconds for some
does anyone know the time
Two days without a drive
yellow lines whisper the story
You crave embrace
as we flatten the couch cushions

Depression
I took no one
To prom
I didn’t even
Cruise the drag
With the dregs
That night
I shuttered my window
I turned off the light
I think
I spent the night
Begging
For no dawn
To prom
I didn’t even
Cruise the drag
With the dregs
That night
I shuttered my window
I turned off the light
I think
I spent the night
Begging
For no dawn
