The Mind of a Mortal - Chapter 1 (Preview)
The Mind of a Mortal Chapter 1 By J.C. Solis The silence of the room was shattered as the siren blared in a roar of annoying vitriol. Slumber was impossible with this cacophony, a sound that the man in his bed loathed to hear every time the morning came. With his eyes still closed, he extended his arm out and slammed it hard on the offensive device that called for his rouse. He could easily fall back to sleep for a few more moments, hoping to catch a few more Zzzs before starting with this new day. But there was no point. The sun was shining through the window as the new day awaited. There was nothing he could do to stymie it. There was no escaping his fate and his daily morning routine. Jasper slinked out of bed, his eyes rather crusty and his mind still half asleep. In all honesty, despite the weary eyes, he looked forward to today. It would be the start of the second week of the new semester of school. He wasn’t forced to get up get up at seven o’clock in the morning; his

The Mind of a Mortal Prologue By J.C. Solis The rain on this winter day in Long Beach was cold, the wind chill making the already frigid waters falling from the sky intolerable to most, and the gloomy skies offered no reprieve from the solemnity of the day. Even if one was having a great day, enjoying life, having had a wonderful time at school or work, eating a splendid lunch, or doing a myriad of other things to bring elation, the dark clouds in the sky were sure to bring said joy to a halt. The region’s current drought only added insult to injury – rain would only come with a dreary that made one hunger for a cocktail of Xanax and Zoloft. The only thing to counter the gloom was that the rain was much welcome in this dry, dry land, bringing new life to the flora that was in desperate need of a good soaking. The clinic was quiet, though; warm even. The smell of the morning’s coffee lingered in the air, only for that scent to be reinforced by the coffee machine that the clinic

Believe in A Schizophrenic (Poem)
Believe in A Schizophrenic Alt. Title: Believe in the Strength of a Schizophrenic By J.C. Solis I am a man who has suffered so much I feel the curse of Insanity’s touch I am a man who now wants to be well For I am currently within this hell Please believe every word that I’ve said For if not for strength, I’d long since be dead And now I want to reverse this foul curse Before my illness just keeps getting worse I feel the voices, pains, and these lies The creatures inside that wish that I die I dissociate and enter new worlds Though these foul places are completely curled I want to believe that there’s still a chance Even as my mind leaves me in a trance I want to believe in Light past the dark For I have lived these many years so stark But though I feel this deep down in my bones I remind myself that I’m not alone I have friends and family who still care I still feel the hope that floats in the air I just want my mind to again feel whole I want to know if I

Dissociation - The Mind of a Schizophrenic (Poem)
Dissociation The Mind of a Schizophrenic By J.C. Solis What is a man with a mind that’s not free? And can’t be whatever it wants to be What is a mind that has no such control? What is it like to still have a pure soul? (Who am I, where am I, what’s this I feel? A feeling that to Me barely feels real) What is this world where people live their lives? And search for peace of mind for which they strive (What is this place. And where am I right now? I’m so lost, and yet found my way somehow) What are these colors painted all around? (Why can’t I plant my feet down on the ground?) (What are these faces that the people sneer?) The Mentally Ill the people do fear For this is a world of judgement and mange (All while I start to feel further deranged) And with a mind that seems to lack control With tiredness that soon starts to take a toll What is this life with twists and turns around? (Why must I suffer in Life so profound?) What is psychosis to

The Suffering of a Schizophrenic (Poem)
The Suffering of a Schizophrenic By J.C. Solis What heartfelt sadness one feels deep inside Where one’s inner demons live and reside What suffering and tinges of due pain The pain that long since drove a man insane So this is a life that one can’t control A feeling that keeps one from being whole For these are the words that have remained true It is through illness that someone now rues And as this plague infests deep in one’s mind To see and hear voices that are not kind It is through this cacophony we see That when a person begs to be set free It doesn’t take a little bit or much That comes from the feel of this sickly touch For one to see that the mind has gone wrong The insanity sings its deathly song This is a feeling that so many feel A feeling that none of them can repeal It is a feeling that robs one of light For the monsters prowl in both day and night For this is the mind at its most deranged A mind that is lost within its own mange And all reasoning
