Died Unknowing of the Surrounding World

Like the screech of a chalkboard
Or letting out a horrid retch
Or unbottling all at once your blissful rage

Consuming the patients room an abyss of eerie silence
When suddenly there was no more lub-dub
The machinerys ticks, tocks, and beeps no longer needed to our defiance
Piercing the silence, cries of despair and agony an emotional flood

The girl who occupied the asylum was no more
Her crazy delusional thoughts swirled about no more
Pain filled eyes numb mind and body no more
In turn her bipolar, schizophrenic behavior was no more

Finally everyone digested life is but a drug
In which everyone devours but none quit willingly
No whispers or word of popping the plug
They stand all with profound vulnerability

Her inexperienced soul had suffered for such an eternity
She endured the agony, oh so gracefully
They thought she would stay longer with such fidelity
Watched her roll away fretfully

Now she doesn't budge not one inch
Now she doesn't explore the world with her unkowing eyes
But they wondered if it was better for her to leave the deranged
But they wondered if it was unwise to tell her so many lies
