Madness Poem by Jim Farr

From long ago
Memories now calling forth
Bring lessons lost in time
Reminding of past dreams
Hopes and fantasies
These things steal my mind
Wasting away over time
Madness and jealousy
Have now taken over me
I'm too far-gone
Now completely broken down
My mind; hiding behind
The glass of my eyes
No longer lives in this world
But somewhere far away
Removed from time and space
Not a happy place
They hold me there
I cannot let go; they told me so
