Insanity Poem by Sarah Mendly

Silence of the gloom darkened by the weak
For words of wisdom is all that I seek
As I betray my heart when I listen to my head
Accusing my mouth of what it has said.

For my pulse beats to a different melody
Sending silhouettes for only my eyes to see
'Cause he strikes me down with shivers to my spine
Making my heart skip a couple of beats out of time.

For my eyes excite butterflies from within me
But yet again I double-cross my heart and no one can see
'Cause my pain drips into an ocean of love
As orders continue to be sent from above.

And as I turn black from ridden of my soul
A true friend says: 'time certainly takes it's toll'
For I have pined for you longer than time can tell
And cause of my own doing, I am creating a hell.

Paying for crimes that I have yet committed
So now my heart can tell my head that I am so dim-witted
But it's too late, I'm fading away
Killing my hunger day by day.

And soon the dark shall kill the words as I speak
For his silence has inevitably made me weak.

So I shall live in this gloom till the 'morrow
Where hopefully the days light will have no room for my sorrow
For a new day shall ultimately begin again
And my love of light shall free my pain...
Shall free my pain
....and keep me sane.
