The silence I crave never lasts
The whispers of intrusion creep in fast
Exposing the demons from within
Scorching my peace yet again
My brain beats against my skull because something is wrong
The intrusive thoughts are singing their enchanting song
Do the wrong thing, make the wrong remark
Say the wrong thing, hurt everyone’s heart
The Silence I crave is never coming back
Not with anxiety and depression leading the attack
I crave the silence so I can hide
With every thought I’m reminded how my sanity has died

Intrusive Thoughts
Be quiet, Hide under the covers, Don’t wake!
Shun the light and Don’t heed the voices, They’re Fake!
Push through the pain as your brain rots
Face the mirror backwards to hide from the Intrusive Thoughts
That reflection isn’t you, just because it has your face
it’s intrusive thoughts coming to take your place
Sneering in the inverse beckoning the sin
The depression is starting to manifest, Darkness covets a win
The intrusive thoughts are getting too heavy to lift
Chemicals are waning i’m starting to feel a shift
Becoming forgetful now, forgetting my life’s role
Intrusive thoughts are devouring my soul
So be quiet, get lost in a dream, Don’t wake!
Run from the light, fear the voices, they’re fake!
Endure the sepsis of soul as your brain rots
Face the mirror backwards to hide from the Intrusive Thoughts…
-Poetic Ice
Pills for Feels
What do you do when feeling useless becomes the norm?
When you’ve given up and got lost in the storm
You’ve gone 12 rounds and got beat down by life
Strewn across the surgery table under anxiety’s knife
Shattered rose colored glasses, blinded to the poetic
Battered by a cyclone of rage, and oh so unapologetic
This is now the normal homeostasis
Forced to go into the world with several wounded faces
You desire to heal those wounds, so down the drugs
Everything is better with daily chemical hugs
to feel normal, be human, this is the cost
But what do you do when you’re doped up and lost?
-Poetic Ice
Falling into the night
Failing deeper into darkness
Enveloped in the peaceful rage of night
Serenity causes insanity, peace makes fright/
Despair is abundant, hope not in sight
Falling deeper into the darkness
Enveloped in the peaceful rage of night
Tick tick ticking
Tick tick ticking away
Ebbing away at my sanity
Eroding my empathy
Degrading my humanity
Tick tick ticking away
Getting closer to detonation
Forever getting lost in contemplation
Losing my mind without explanation
Tick tick ticking away
The fuse is getting closer to its end
My soul is about to bend
My body has lost its will to self defend
Tick tick ticking away….
