Poem of the Mentally Unstable (Borderline Personality Disorder)
November 7, 2014
Drifting away
Less and less of me
I’m scared of this illness
I need everybody
To need me
But no one ever does
Surrounded by stability
Naivity
Leave me alone
But please don’t leave
Constant anger
Anxiety
Panic
Love
Need
Isolation
Nothing
Each day
Life becomes more of a chore
I become more of a bore
To my friends
I can’t stop talking
Vomiting words out
Then can’t get out a word at all
Just tears
Understand me
I beg
Don’t move on
Just love me
Hold me
Want me
Need me
Please.
