Schizophrenia...

"Do you know what it's like
to hear voices in your head?
Its very annoying to always be
listening to things unsaid," Amber said.
AMBER! SHUT UP!!! This is my poem,
not yours! And anyway...it's supposed
to be free verse, not rhyme. Idiot...
Hi people, I'm Katie.
Yeah, just ignore that first part,
if you can, that was just Amber,
my little voice inside my head.
"I just explained that." Amber said.
I SAID SHUT UP! As I was saying,
before I was rudely interrupted,
Amber interrupts me a lot.
I think she does it just to annoy me.
"Oh my gosh! You're so smart Katie!
You figured that out all by yourself!"
Look, Amber, do you want to write this?
Or do you want me to?
"Hello? Moron. You have schizophrenia,
not a multiple personality disorder!
I can't control you're body, I can just
annoy you until you go insane.
So you're going to have to write the poem.
And by the looks of it, you're not doing so well..."
Well then stop talking so I can work on it!
Anyway, being schizophrenic is ---
"On top of spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
I lost my poor meatball,
when somebody ----"
AHHHH! I GIVE UP!!!
"Wait... What'd I do?"

    This is quite funny. I thought you really were schizophrenic.

    The first part- I am in love with the first part, it kind of has a...sobering feel to it

    The second part- Is very entertaining, and I like it because although it's very humerous, it also has a kind of subtle hint has to just how dark and disturbing schizophrenia really is.

    Great work, thanks for submitting

    This was really funny. I loved the argument between Amber and Katie. It seemed realistic in an alternate reality sort of way. Great entry! Good luck in the contest!

    hah. It bent a little to the humerous side but thats ok, sometimes serious can be very humerous indeed
    and yes that would be very annoying if two people were always talking at the same time

    I've got one for you
    your poems seem to be generally happy and usually based on love as in Because I love you,
    so I want you to do a poem about skitzofrenia.
