Locked In.

I haven't written in awhile.

The thoughts never end.

The voices…

Won't rest.

I'm drowning in sound.

No.

Not sound.

Just…voices.

They're always,

Telling me what to do.

It's endless

Confusion.

I find myself

Glued to my bed.

Just stuck.

But why?

I can never move

My arms.

They're always tied

Around me?

I think I went blind.

All I ever see is

White.

I think…

Where am I?

Wait.

Who are you?

Am I…you?

No. No. No.

That makes

No

Sense?

Stop talking!

Wait.

I'm not writing. 

My hands!

Where are they?

Oh,

That's right.

I'm not allowed

To use them.

I remember.

They gave me 

Something special.

A…jacket?

What's that sound?

I'm crying.

No. 

Laughing.

Wait.

Who are you?

You're me?

No.

Stop it!

I'm not crazy.

Just lost.

I think?

Who am I?
