The Sanity Game: How to Make a Schizo
it’s hard to stay sane
still fighting to understand what sanity is
i’m trying and trying
to understand myself
what it is to be normal
what normal really is
in unnormal worlds
learning what it is to be,
and what it is to be in the now
it is hard enough to do all that
while listening to time click and tick noticeably past
and on top of all that,
i’m forced to create, yet again, another self
for my loved ones
so not to panic
because for them
i am being unnormal
what sanity is to me,
insanity is to them..
stop forcing me to play games
you are forcing me to pretend, and it is against my religion
oh Chronos, move it already
before they take me in and lock me out
“Always remember who you are” and how beautiful you are. Remember that “humankind cannot bear too much reality”, too many birds and children laughing up in the trees. That the visions and illusions must be diluted and sugared before they can be served up for the family dinner. Be calm and carry on, love. And if you want to talk to me, you know where to find me…xoxo f
