I think
Something bad is going to happen
Really soon
But I can't tell
If
I think this
Or if it's because I didn't take my meds

My meds silence
Everything
Before there was
Constant static
My family hears voices in static

I can't tell if
It's a heartbeat
Or a countdown

I think something really bad is going to happen
But I don't know
If I think that
Or if I'm off my meds
And if I'm off my rocker
Does that make it any less true?
