Tire me, schizophrenia.

Go on and try to mend the pieces,

You and I are both broken.

We love hate because we criticize. We break ourselves.

Frighten me, and I will know more about you.

Leave me, and I will be better at being lonely.

You’re in my mirror, with post-traumatic teardrops.

If you can’t stop, you’ll give away

That you’re human, because you’re me.

Capable as you are, awake when you need to be,

Keep us alive.

You’ve demystified again today.
