My Dark Soul

Crazy?

You keep telling me I'm crazy

and that's why I'm here.

But,

I tell you

that I'm here out of fear.

Fear of differences

Fear of oddities

Fear of ME.

I didn't kill anyone

and I'm not insane

I didn't hurt anyone

and no one's inside my brain..

I may be different

I may be special

but

that's me.

I don't deserve to be locked up

or imprisoned.

I don't deserve

to be strapped to a chair

and be electrocuted,

or cured.

I don't deserve

to be nearly drowned

or boiled.

I don't deserve

to be medicated

for something I don't have

or drugged.

I don't deserve

being made crazy

or insane

but yet

you're making me that way.

I was thrown in here

because:

I loved too much

I laughed too much

I danced too much

I drank too much

I ate too much

I didn't eat enough

I don't believe in religion too much

I liked sex too much

I read too much

I wrote too much

I LEARNED TOO MUCH.

I was thrown

into hell

because

I was always

too much.

Too much for:

My parents

My teachers

My friends

My family

Too much

even for me.

Who would've thought

that I'd be locked up

just because

I chose a life

that I wanted

but they despised.

So,

you decide

am I crazy?

am I insane?

Do the monsters

really live inside my brain?

or

am I different?

am I sane?

Do the monsters

really exist

but as people?

You decide.
