This was written about a week ago while going through a hard part of my life that I'm still dealing with and will be dealing with for the rest of my life. I don't think the meter or verse format is correct, but at this point I'm just happy that I wrote anything at all.




Rain bouncing
Thoughts dropping
Dripping down my scalp

I'm sweating intelligence
My skull can't hold me back

But problems
Issues, illnesses
Plaguing my brain

People say I'm insane
But they can't call me lame
Because my mind is to blame

These thoughts
These feelings, impulses
I try to control

It's hard to focus now
When your head folds
Like a card table

Too much weight to handle
The world pressures me
To be normal

But what is normal?
It does not exist.
There's only two states
Which I'll always hate

First up there's the hopeless
The ones just too far gone to
Ever see the lives that they're always stepping on

And now there's the fakers
Frauds and posers their actions
Thinner and clearer than cellophane and paper

But I'm just in between
The two evils fighting for power
Trying to devour my soul
In the 11th Hour.

I feel my mind slipping
I try gripping reality
Holding onto everything I say

This is my battle
And will always be my life
I just hope I'll make an impact
Somewhere down the line

Rain bouncing
Thoughts dropping
Dripping down my scalp

I'm sweating intelligence
But now nothing holds me back

The problems
Issues, Illnesses
Plaguing my brain

I won't let them reign
Lest I become insane
So let the pain rain.
