Mind creates anew
Spiritual not naturally
Screw loose lost strategy
convinced casually leave reality
Told my therapist
I’m bored and suppressed
Want to forget and leave what’s left
Shock faded then she replied
picture a improved you
Stopped mid sentence hour was up
So my Mind creates anew,
ME
but With Lesser issues
HE Won’t Bury ME,
But I want him to
Time to Time HE begs
Please, cry for ME
agreed only if I could
Be presentable nice suit
Neck in a noose
Tie knots no second thoughts
But WE Lost OUR geography
stop wondering where I am
Follow ME In the dark
No care, stop asking how I am
escape reality it’s only mental stability
Soon you won’t remember US
Maybe then Everything Will be Fine
Don’t tell god
Don’t tell the devil
Don’t tell anyone
This is MY time
to get away from ME

Author's Note
I was interested in the idea of a someone with an imaginary friend that’s a “better version” of themself as a helping strategy. But gets lost who’s the real “them” who’s fake and gets depressed that if they’re the “better version” and still feeling empty that there’s no hope

Hey, there.
Interesting piece.
The idea of creating another version of yourself as a way of improvement that turns into a downfall nightmare is actually (and sadly) more relatable than maybe thought at first. If this is supposed to be a better version and it's still not good enough then maybe it means you're broken anywhere in any version, so there's really no escape and that's just overwhelming. The confusion and frustration of not knowing who the real you is can also be seen when pretending to be something you're not as a way of belonging. We start giving pieces of ourselves until we don't recognize ourselves anymore. But I digress, sorry. I really liked this "Be presentable nice suit
Neck in a noose
Tie knots no second thoughts"

I like your way of breaking down ideas/concepts in a really understanding way to understand. You should honestly do that for a living
