Poem: bleeding, crying, singing, dying
laughing, screaming, hoping, dreaming
i'm addicted to my disorder
i love being crazy
because once they medicate me
i want it back
i can't write anymore
colors mean nothing
i miss manic spending
manic drinking
manic fucking
i miss that good cry
of depression
that incredibe sensitivity to every emotion in the human spectrum of feelings
if i was a color today
i'd be gray
because those white walls
plastic mattresses
empty halls...
i never want to go there again
so i do what they tell me
stay in my playpen
swallow my lithium cocktail
i'm going straight to hell...
