Archived: A Split Mind — Angelica Manuel Fernando (Senior)

Downed in madness

Her voice echoes in the abysmal darkness

She peers warily around the corners

Her ominous presence is pure torture

Is this real pain? Or is it all in my brain?

The sinister smile

Keep me up for a while

 

Her vicious eyes devour me

Making me see

A distorted reality

Forging an abnormal personality

Pills day after day

But she won’t go away!

 

For years she has observed me closely

Eating me away slowly

She split my disordered mind

Now I lay behind

 

She got what she desperately wanted

Inevitably leaving me forgotten
