Insanity

Im alone,
The shadows of my room taunting me,
Calling for me to run and leave my fears behind me,
I cant lay still,
Sleep Well is now only a saying i hear,
Sleepless nights thoses are my nights,
I fight off my fear to run,
Yet i can hold back,
My whimpers and howls,
behind my locked door,
My Insanity,
Bloody fingers and broken nails,
Is what i get for not sleeping,
Or if I do,
Im haunted by my demons,
I hear them calling for me,
Its sounding sweet yet,
Its the call of my insanity.

Restless even in the pitch black,
I scream yet Im not heard,
Pain it comes very night,
I can not breath well,
Aching ribs,
More whimpers and howls,
Yet i can not bring to tell of my insanity,
I want to hurt people,
I will not unlock my door,
Even in as dawn is here,
The monster of my insanity lurks,
Waiting to break his doors,
And unleash himself,
Insanity oh how you call to me,
Yet I cant let you free,
Insanity.

Jeckyll and Hyde lurk within fighting for the right to be seen and heard. A scary look into the mind of the insane. Nice perspective, excellent write.

What you have done here, is bring us into a place that few would've ever understood. You've done an excellent job of showing an almost, undescribable situation with complete precision.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
