I hear and see what is not there.
I pound my fists and pull my hair.
I talk too loud to trump the noises
—chaotic, screaming, inner voices!
I seldom eat and never sleep.
I rarely laugh. I always weep.
I bite my knuckles —scream in silence.
I cut myself to quell the violence!

“The desire to commit suicide is the heart of the recurring battles I've been facing for the last twenty years. I've defined these Cycles, as times in my life interrupted by mental illness, rendering me incapable of functionality. This is true of course, but more to the point, the Cycles are the times in my life when I wanted to die.”
