Madness

I have looked into your eyes

Countless times, searching endlessly

For the answers to burning questions

Forever burdening my heart.

 

Memories flood my beautiful world

As they twist and turn, spiral out of control.

Dark distortions of madness,

Wondering if there was anything at all...

 

Let my waking nightmares

Become sweet, vivid dreams of you.

Lost in your embrace,

And away from this madness.

Great poem, and yet again, it's like you're looking into my world and putting your own twist on it. We must be going through some of the same issues. :) Thanks for sharing!

Bliss is little to come by these days. Great job with the poem. I liked the word choice you used. Nice :)

This was spellbinding. It really keeps me intrigued as the words you choose to make it work reel me in.

Powerful deep poem! Painful memories always haunt people, and the readers can feel this pain.

You dove deep into the dark and did well with expressing the details to your readers..release of the madness and the ties and binds that hold us there.. I love it..xo

Looking back, can be painful .. and life stands still, as we ruminate to the point of madness ..
Let go the chains that bind youth .. There is hope of new Love on the horizon ..

I understand .. Jazz

It does seem that memories flood one's thoughts when we are separated from our love. A good poem here.
