Madness

Thoughts collapse
Mind full of gaps
Can’t escape
Pain takes shape
Cuts on a wrist
Blood dripping from a fist
A noose of rope
Filled with forgotten hope
Death leers near
Their greatest fear
A crushing weight
Is this fate?
Unending pounding inside of my skull
Rendering all of my dreams null
Mind full of nightmares
Crowded by all of my despairs
Laying in some dark riot
Wishing the thoughts would be quiet
Don’t want to talk
Hidden under my lock
Staring at nothing
Wishing for something
To make it stop
Ready to drop
The numbness in my heart
Like a poisonous dart
Darkness surrounding me
Wishing I could just be
Happiness always out of grasp
Voice screamed to a scratchy rasp
 
“Why did you try to kill yourself?”
You ask
"You told me to be happy."
