But my mind is blind.

What I see in life's game,
And what exist,
Is not the same.
So I run from the mist.

Absolutely. I struggle with Borderline Personality Disorder, PTSD, Anxiety, and Depression. It is said they all feed off of each other. It takes another with BPD to truly understand the pain. It is constant, it is debilitating, and the mask we put on for family and friends is exhausting. I have been in and out of therapy. I simply can't connect. No trust. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. It helps knowing there are those who do understand.

I have Avoidant-Borderline Mixed Personality Disorder. Finding order in all the chaos is very difficult. Thank you for this poem.
