Schizophrenia

I’m living in a shadow

A shadow of dreams

The voices I can hear them

They are calling my name

They whisper sweet nothings

And they can’t be seen

This shadow casts mirages

That tingle deep within my soul

But take a second glance

And where did they go?

Search and search as I might

Through the shadows and cobwebs

For the faces crying out

Only to see nothing but the same old same

So I spend my time

Time with eyes open

And fists tight

I spend my time ready and waiting

For something I’m sure is coming

For something that’s not there

I am a girl in love with writing, knitting, and photography (as well as many other hobbies because let's be honest, there are so many cool things a person can do and try instead of just limiting themselves to a handful). I like to spend my free time sitting in the sun with a cup of tea and a good book, adventuring down the highway in my trusty Toyota Corolla or philosophizing with good people and making my brain hurt. I also enjoy getting my nose in as many books as I can, cuddling with my dog, and learning new things about the world and myself. I think the power of the written word is a magical and beautiful thing. By creating this blog I hope to branch out more creatively and continue to grow as a writer. (On a side note I would like to mention that all photography, writing, etc. on my blog is my own unless mentioned otherwise).
