Minds collapsing,
world is shaking,
tears are falling,
chest is quaking.
Into my fortress, my mind is shifting,
I'm lost in the up heave, emotions left drifting.
Here we go,
ambulance ride.
You're just about concious,
by my side.
Wake up, should be woken by my screams.
reach out a finger to puncture your dreams.
You ooze the vomit,
I'll drip the blood.
Tell me,
did insanity ever look this good?
Get up, getting out into the night,
You're Manic and I'm Panic, and I'm causing a fright.
Don't worry,
Please don't despair,
I know where we're going,
I've already been there.
Don't feel alone, on your psych ward bed,
I'm drowning the cold ward, so close, but far above your head.
Author notes
This is the worst time of my life, riding in the ambulance, getting to the hospital, being separated from my girlfriend and put on a psychiatric ward again, knowing she's beneath my feet, out of reach, scared.
