Sink into my mind
and I’ll keep the water running
I love the feeling of the water running down my arms
Because it reminds me how I’m real
drawn in by its charms
although lost in judgement, how do I appeal?
soon after the water finishes draining
I will have a mental breakdown
too much pressure it’s too straining
they treat me like I am a playground
But this is when my patience runs out

- Comment from author about the poem: it’s the worst feeling when you know it’s coming and there’s nothing you can do about it, it feels like you’re watching an hour glass tick away as you watch yourself slowly go even more insane

best to face it bravely. lovely write hooli. i absolutely feel the energy.
Thank you for the kind words
if You
are harming, Yourself
then
You
are adding, to Your
suffering..
there's nothing cool, necessary
or useful, in such actions
whatever your warped mindset
may make you believe..
if, You
have a strong enough
Willpower
to harm , yourself
then Please
utilise that same, Willpower
to Seek help..
remember, You
are not alone! nor
are You, the only One
battling
for your survival
please, stay strong!

It seems you’ve misinterpreted my poetry! I suffer from derealization which means sometimes I feel like I’m not real and there’s random moments where I become very aware that I am real, I do not self harm or any of the such. Showers and water running down my arms are a different texture so it reminds me that this is real, sometimes I think life is a dream that is all 🙂
even better! please
forgive my foolish, over reaction
all the best with your condition
