•The narrator is kinda like a voice that is not hers inside her head
{hope that helps this make more sense}

~•PART ONE•~

Introduction
This is Jamie.
she has no memory of her past
people don’t get her
and who am I?
lets say,
I know her
inside and out

she wants me to get out of her head
tough luck Jamie



1.
Some people have a stutter
a twitch
a problem
a phobia

But do you have a glitch?
a second of blindness,
lightning shooting through your brain

and it all goes black.

The floor is cold

At least you can't see the people staring

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2.

The floor is still cold, but sight has come back.
sitting in the hall in your school
yes people are staring but at least they say nothing
because you don't reply
you gave up on speaking months ago
because people stopped listening
they think you are lying
glitches are fake
you only want attention
of course they want to think that
even the small amount of attention you got before
that was too much for you
people stare
you stare back
is that considered intimidating?
staring back?
well you are still a freak.
that never changed.
and every one knows it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

3.

Students are cleared
but teachers stare just as much

After Shock settles
you have sat there for several minutes
teachers, the adults
the mature ones
are still uneasy about gathering you
you, a 15 year old girl
they still hesitate before moving
stopped dead by your eyes
bright green and flaring
from under your short black hair
they can see that you have been watching the commotion
silent as always,
seeing the concern
the confusion
fear
hatred
Makes you feel great
huh?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

4.

Ushered towards the office
to the phone
they all pray this time you will speak
talk to your mom yourself
explain you glitched
for the sixth time this month
you disappoint
you always do
you are human
disappointment follows being human
your form of human is simply

Disappointing

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

5.

You feel smothered by
people surrounding you
peoples concern for you
even the feel of eyes on you
so weak.
you even feel smothered by the heat
the heat inside your "mom's" car
sweating in the passenger's seat
you may have a "mom" for now
but foster parents always give up on you
they always do
but you have to give her credit
she is only 26
she comes and picks you up
and deals with the silence
don't feel guilty
don't worry Jamie
she will leave soon
just like the others

It will be just us

Alone again

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

6.

You can’t feel that alone
I talk to you
I'm always with you
in this sad sad little head

Try and be as silent as you can
unless you stop thinking you always reply
we have such lovely little conversations
don’t we
you get a life lesson or two
I explain what you don’t get
and I help you understand this pain

Yes
go to this happy place of yours
the one that will never be

Real parents
no me

It’s amusing

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

7.

You Sit in the dark corner of this old class room
you are pale
skinny
and have scary eyes
but
you are not a vampire,
you little imbecile

Eventually you will need to find a person
a freak like you
I hear there is a Circus nearby
…...

Stop!
these stupid pointless thoughts!
you don't want to go
your afraid
shut up.
communicate with some one else
your nagging thoughts are
irritating

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

8.

Insane
your just thinking of this now?
of course.
don't think of me as a delusion
haven't I been the only one....
the only friend to talk to you
every one else thinks your a freak
I’m just the only one to tell you the truth.

Does having a friend
even if inside your head
make you insane?

You are more dull than I thought

I’m obviously real.
you hear me.
I see you...
if only on the inside

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

9.


Oh you wimp
you have been panicking too much
why would you be afraid
of me you say?

A voice
me
scary

Stop crying,
staining your shirts does nothing
your weak heart will still hurt

Oh so this is about that phone call
the one to foster-care you over-heard
...
we're going back
figures
doesn't it?

The more glitches you have
less people have hope
in you

At least there will be:
a new house
new "family"
new school
more chances you will have
chances to prove you are
to put lightly

Worthless

Ugh,
And the water works begin again...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

10.

Now look what you’ve done
You are sitting here
siting in the corner of your room
weeping

You really thought you had a chance
one to stay with your fake mom
to be loved
you still had hope

Hope.
you crushed it all
all by your self

And me?
you think I have part in killing the hope?
You want me gone.
You hate me.

If I was gone
who would care for you
who would tell you the reality of your self
and talk to you

Do you really want me to leave?

The first thing you say out loud
the only thing in months
Stop Stop Stop
muttering in your corner
do you want to be sent to the asylum
your already here in foster care
I say, stop stop stop to you
your not helping your self

Maybe nothing can help you
have you thought of that?
is there a point
...
to you?

What purpose do you have?
no one loves you
your just
...
The freak of nature
or to some,
the fake

I know how to make myself go away
as well as
the glitches
the staring
the pain

Don’t you want that?

Have you thought of a gun
put it close to your ear
and you wont be able to hear me
and every thing can

End

•Glitch• PART TWO

Postby INK. » Sat May 26, 2012 12:18 pm

~•PART TWO•~

11.

Well wasn’t that convenient
I can cause glitches
fascinating

I knew that was the perfect time


Now as your dull eyes re-focus
look to your right
now what is this?
taped to the bottom of your wardrobe


It appears that the previous child
or last one to live in this room
was a little
juvenile delinquent

A gun hidden away

Now what will you do with it?
think about it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

12.

Amazing how comforting that can feel
the touch of rough black metal
as your fingers glide over it

Stop crying
is this how you want to go?

Your body found
streaked in tears
now that’s not the way to do it

You are sure of your decision
and you will carry it through
no tears

Raise your gun
prepare your self
this has to be done
you know it’s true

Hold your head high
brush your hair back

Gun to position
ready?

It’s

time

To

Go

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

13.

Your on the floor
I remember you falling
but I am still here
and so are you

What have you done!?
you couldn't even kill your self correctly
I can tell the bullet grazed your forehead
so why did you fall
that is the question

Damn it Jamie!
open your eyes
I don't know what's happening
not until your eyes open
...
Ah
I see, so you were tackled
just as you pulled the trigger
you are completely surrounded by people
all of them are staring

This was to end every thing
make it all simple

I told you to stop crying
they found you too soon
this complicates every thing
you will be on constant watch.

Good job Jamie
you ruined you last chance

Enjoy you suffering because
this is all your fault.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

14.

Just keep eating
if you keep eating they stop staring
if you stop eating
or your still
you may go on a rampage

Or so they think

They may lock you away
never to be seen again
at least your eating in the filthy mess-hall of an old foster home
not being fed through a slat in the door
not yet at least

Why did you put down your fork?
people are staring.
what do you plan to do?
scream?

Gah!
Stop.
Screaming!

You look like a lunatic
well i guess you already are
but screaming is not helping your image

Seriously!
I was not suggesting this.
It’s called sarcasm child.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

15.

Well arrangements are being made
right now
as we speak

To the asylum we go!
now wont this be exciting!
you may meet another lunatic
mute like you.

But what is the chance of that?
I’d say very little
even if luck is not in your favor

You have me.
until you start screaming.
then I leave.
that wasn’t fun, you gave me a head ache.

Pack your things

We are going to the asylum
were you belong

Were you have always belonged
call it your...
home

But whats your home with out me?
I’ll be there with you the whole time
to give you advice
help make decisions.

Wont this be simply
fantastic

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

16.

Well isn’t this nice.
it’s more clean than the foster house
you have you own room

that locks from the out side

BUT still
we have been here a week
you’ve glitched only three times.
And people smile at you...
okay,
so its a sympathetic smile
or,
one that says you scare me, so I wont make you mad

Yeah mostly that kind of smile.

Sure I’m not making this sound great
but look around
you found the place were you belong.
amongst all these crazy people

They make you seem almost sane!
now that’s pretty incredible.

Ooh
therapy time!
now this is the most amusing.
you, Jamie, you are here because
1. you tried to kill yourself
2. you refuse to speak
…. Is lack of speech an indicate of a mental problem?
well, what I’m getting at is..
you are not here because you have a voice in your head.
you my friend,
are here because your life seems to be

to precious.

I hate to disagree.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

17.

Well.
now that didn't go too well

What were you thinking?
you started ''whimpering" in the middle of therapy.
now you look like a nervous mess.
a breakdown waiting to happen.

All he did was ask, How are you are you?
that's all.
you are becoming so weak
you were never strong...
but you are at an all time low.

This is disappointing Jamie.

I have always told you not to cry.
whimpering applies to this rule.

Jamie, you have to listen to me.
I am helping you here.

... I know you are not deaf.

But why wont you listen?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

18.

You glitch
time
and time again.

It’s becoming more frequent
you panic more
you cry more

Dealing with your mind...
it’s exhausting!

I know you’re paranoid
but you shouldn’t be.

Calm down,
people only glance at you from cracked doors
because,
well you concern people!
I cant believe you cant see why.
well you scream
you cry
you refuse to speak
not to mention you pass out every other day

Get your act together.
you’re loosing the battle called your life.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

19.

A doctor.
they say it’s for a physical
but why believe them.

They think there is something wrong in your brain.
you know this wont be fun
there is a guarantee of needles

Needles just stuck into you
like you’re a lab rat.
you will only be an experiment to them
they don’t want to help you.
why would they?

No one
no one at all has ever cared
you probably don't even seem like a real person
just a bunch of crazy disguised as a person
they will have no mercy.

You must resist them
they will torture you
you cant go willingly

With their power
they could kill you

You may simply a waste of life
but do you want a doctor to kill you?
even if you killed your self,
you could have gone with dignity
but by a doctor?

Why of course I have a plan

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

20.

The bright florescent lights
these plain white walls.
the air, too dry and cold
you were supposed to never let them get you here
kick
scream
anything!
you went willingly
...
Just stop ignoring me for a minute

Remember what I said.

They can and may hurt you
we don’t want that do we?
you must prevent anything from happening to you
but shouldn’t that be instinct?
so far you haven’t helped my point.

Now look
look how untrusted you are,
not one doctor but six.
six doctors are here!
“We are here to just take care of you”
see how they have surrounded you?
“Its only going to be a physical”
my ass.

“Just lay down here”

Don’t you dare Jamie.
don’t be an idiot
...
what are you doing Jamie?
don't you lay down.
-
my god, sit back up!
run from the room!
stab a doctor in the eye!

Move Jamie
move now.
restraints are coming out.
you will be tied down
hopeless.
helpless.
and you are letting them do this!

“Just stay still, and be calm
we are going to give you some anesthesia
we need to do some tests”

What did I tell you!
what have you done!
stop letting them do this!
scream,
yell!
just say no.

Please Jamie
please stop this
-they’re moving in
-it’s on your face.
stop breathing it in.

It’s all going to end
it’s your fault
~
All yours

~•Part Three•~


21.

Floating
it’s like in space
all is calm
all is quiet.
~
But you’re not here Jamie
not quite
your mind and soul
that’s whats here
your body is now

Separate

Your not dead.

No.
not quite
not yet
see, you can move on
if you want
it would be as if you were dead
but
your body would live
with me inside
oh Jamie!
I could be

Truly alive!
my own body
all you have to do is...
you would have to move on.
go to the light, so to speak
heaven
if you prefer to think that way
though I doubt it’s true
and I will live on
while you will float
alone and in silence
no, not depressing
trust me.
it’s peaceful
~I guess

Please go
it’s better for the both of us
you had your chance at life.
give me mine.

Choose quickly
one of us has to go now

Leave!
I feel as if I am being...
pulled...
torn..

Help me Jamie!


22.~Epilogue~

“Now remember what we said to do Jamie”
Yeah, do what you told me
tell myself, or think,
about all the details in my life
what I know, and what is true
to keep calm or relaxed,
I guess

Okay, here I go,

My name is Jamie
I’m fifteen
I lived in foster care most of my life
but never had a true home
I had a voice
but not my own,
inside of my head
it told me what to do,
because it was for my own good
it told me I was a freak
an idiot
worthless.
I nearly took my own life from it’s suggestion.
it caused what I call a glitch
but the doctors say it was a form of seizure
and the voice was the effect of a tumor in my brain

But they took it out.
I nearly died.
and I easily could have, the voice told me to
but I didn’t.
I didn’t want to die on a table

But
I am alive.

I. Am. Alive.
and every thing seems quiet
like a dream
I feel alone
and I am.

I am alone in my own mind
It’s mine
and under my control
and I like this way
I feel almost strong,
brave
I could scream to the world how free I am
but I wont.
I still haven’t spoken
not for so long
I was so afraid
everything was dark
and I felt as if I didn’t have I voice
but I do.
I do.
I am strong,
I am alive
and my previous foster mom is out side
waiting
waiting to take me home

I am happy
I don't know the last time I thought that.
It’s like a window has opened for the first time in years
or the sun came up after a never ending night

All I have to do
is have courage.
open my mouth
and just say
...
“Hello”
