Array ( [sid] => 79128 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Talking To Myself [time] => 2005-01-09 06:56:25 [hometext] => just some ramblings of a mad woman.. [bodytext] => I like to sit & talk to myself,
But there’s nothing wrong with my mental health,
I am normal the man in the moon told me,
He said that lunatics are the only ones who are free.

Even when I am locked away,
In an asylum day after day,
At night I have full blown conversations,
With myself I make a reservation.

I always speak the truth I never lie,
I know without medication I can fly,
I can trip with dropping and acid pill,
My mind just seems to have its own will,

My voice is well heard I speak clear,
I try to stop my insanity from coming near,
I hear it trying to communicate,
But I leave it swinging on the garden gate.

I smile at myself as I see my reflection,
I can’t have sharp objects for my own protection,
But I am harmless I wouldn’t kill anyone,
I just like to lose my mind & have some fun.

Let's see. You are a crazy person. Even if this isn't about you, you are still messed up. Who sits around and thinks of this kind of crap. You need help. You know, there really is no such thing as mental illness. There are just a bunch of godless people out there looking for something to blame their screw ups on and i guess you are one of those who chose mental illness. Thanks. oh yeah. Got God? you need Him

"I can’t have sharp objects for my own protection,"
What a creepy line... I liked this poem, but for
some reason can't say anything more than
that.
