Sitting alone with these thoughts in my head

Feeling all empty, feeling dismayed

The pain and the bitterness

The scars that won't fade

The anger, the hurt

And my feelings of rage

They've pushed to the surface

From deep down inside

No longer as subtle

Or as things I can hide

My smiles have all faded

Replaced by a frown

I try and I try to just push it all down

But despite all my efforts it continues to show

It all builds and compiles

And continues to grow

Confusion distorts my once steady mind

And although I am searching, I can't seem to find

The answer that will leave all these feelings behind

Keyword: I don't suffer from insanity I enjoy every minute

Posted by Amatayo 2008-07-10 01:39:17 .... Yeah this was a really good poem. It flowed almost all the way through. And I have notice that more and more poems are talking about darker things and depression. Is this the only thing that drives us poets to writing. ( Something to think about.) + Report this comment
Posted by Pilgrim 2008-07-10 10:59:51 WOW I think this poem was excellent. No matter how hard you try to hold in your feeling of bitterness and rage they always find a way out. I think you caught these feelings wonderfully in this poem. I LOVED THIS!! + Report this comment
Posted by Hodders 2008-07-10 13:08:02 .... Well written but I found it a little boring. It flowed very well and I liked the ending. With the title I was expecting something a lot more intense but it was a nice surprise to see how subtle the insanity is rising in this character. + Report this comment

Posted by Pilgrim 2008-09-04 14:55:32 .... But amie, the answer is right before your eyes. Just put the bandaide over it. The flashing was intense at first, then I moved the screen down and I was able to concentrate. Good poem. + Report this comment
