Let Me Out

by Dark Winter   Apr 25, 2006


I am trapped in a Psychiatric ward,
I want to leave, I pray to the Lord.
Stuck here all day, I am so bored.
Thinking of my family living off fraud.

People say that I am crazy,
The nurses call me lazy.
When I take my drugs, my vision is hazy,
I have an imaginary friend called Daisy.

My life revolves round this padded cell,
Stuck in an endless routine of pure Hell.
Sniffing up this notorious hospital smell,
I wrap myself up in a protective shell.

It is my turn to see the Psychiatrist,
I wish I could just go out and get pissed.
I hope he doesn't ask me about the scars on my wrist,
I do not want to resort to using my fists!

He sits there and asks me awkward questions,
Go away is one of my good suggestions!
I have taken ecstasy is one of my confessions,
That picture of that girl in my room is my obsession.

Yes, yes I will be a good boy and take my pill,
Yes, yes give me another injection and I will sit still.
Yes, yes I will be nice to the new nurse called Jill,
Yes, yes any violent sensations I have, I will kill.

No, no I do not want to stay,
No, no I have been stuck here since early May!
No, no I miss home I hate being away!
No, no I miss my friend's let me go and I will even pay.

I will have no more violent thoughts,
Because of all the pain they have brought.
I am only here because I was caught,
If I could go back I would have fought.

I want to leave so let me out!
Before I knock everyone out!
I want to leave so let me out!
Before I wipe everyone out!

    An easy poem for anyone whose been in the ward to relate to. This is a very different style from what I'm used to reading. It's nice to read something fresh and original for once. Keep it up!
