Prisoner of the Psyche
Confined in my own mind
Imprisoned and abandoned
Voices offering difficult choices
Insanity will be the death of me
Hopeless and helpless
Hated and frustrated
Trapped, unable to adapt
Lost, at what cost?
Scared, always unprepared
Wounded, feeling defeated
Isolated
How long must I feel hated?
Scorned
When I die will I even be mourned?
I'm stuck
Always feeling like a prisoner
No pulse
Just waiting for the coroner
Anonymous
Not feeling like a commoner
Damned
Judge, jury and executioner
