Your brain is lying to you,
me to me my brain,
so I have to ignore all the shouting
and it is screeching into my mind,
showing me all kinds of things
I do not wish to see, exploding
over my ability to make sense
of the around me,
fogged forces of fury,
it is so angry that I would stop believing it
and choose others who are not
in here with us and yet they
are caring for me so why would
they lie?

I cannot trust myself any longer,
none of what I am thinking can be
true if I feel so rotten and off,
this must not be how it should be,
and despite the yells and howls
from the brain I need to place
some tough barrier, or cocoon across
and be a shell
for others to direct,
until it is under control and
I can return and I hope I can.
