Still Surviving

Sitting in class in the middle of the year When voices in my head for some reason cause fear I try to ignore it and go on with my day Because I don't want to hear what they have to say But as I ignore them longer, They always just get stronger I know it isn't real and no one else can hear it But that doesn't stop me from sometimes doing what they say People say "well just ignore/don't do it" Don't I wish it were that easy I get tired of explaining my illness to people who don't really care So unless someone really wants to know, I usually don't share I used to be ashamed But now I'm proud to say I have schizoaffective disorder And I am still SURVIVING!
