Schizoforensics

Quiet, listen, I’m sure I heard your name.

It came from that crowd over there.

they are sniggering, laughing at you,

I’ll walk away, pretend I’m unaware.

Who is this voice I hear from inside?

“I am the one who cannot be denied”

Why do you torture me with paranoia?

“I’m always here, I just like to hide”

You didn’t answer my question!

Surely you are torturing yourself when torturing me

“I thrive on confusion and fear,

As soon as you crack I will come forth, come to be”

“You can’t beat me so don’t even try,

when I strike, you tear on the inside,

you only exist because I allow it,

I’m just enjoying the show, along for the ride”

So, you are me? “No! You are me”

I am you? Who then are you and who am I?

“I am id; you are no-one, irrelevant,

you serve purpose you need not know why”

So what now? You’ve allowed yourself to be exposed,

you cannot manipulate now I know you’re there.

“This concerns me not; you are easily replaced, good bye”

So, they’re talking about me, once they’re separated, into them I’ll tear!
