The Paradise of the lost mind

A Depressed take on the life of a random individual who could have been anyone of us.

I looked out the window to write this song

The words just came out and it didn't take long.

When I searched for the sun it wasn't there

I'm letting you know that Life will never be fair.

I am very tired yet I don't sleep

For my mind seems to have lost in something very deep.

Here comes the rain

Alas! I'm already drenched in pain.

Deep down I'm turning blue

Making sure others don't have a clue.

I try to fly with these broken wings

Keeping the heart that still stings.

I am a dreamer whop keeps thinking of better days

Though I'm the first person to know that this is how the life stays.

Awaiting the toll of the bell

To take me to hell!

It reminded me of one of my poems... It is really dark out here so watch out the gnawing pain.. Often when we write dark people ask... are you okay?? i just get pissed off at them.Because we let the darkness in us to flood out in the paper. i liked your style of couplets. they did flow smoothly from one line to other.A goodgood job here with this one

Thanks sophy:) Yes.... Instead of letting darkness consume us, we let it be consumed by paper... True:) If you mind showing me your similar write-up. I'll be glad to read it!!!

Your awesome Sophy! I do hate it when people ask me if I'm ok, I'm talking about death yes, but it's people who ask that question that are really suffering from kubler ross's stages of grief, they don't accept our fates. The sooner we see what death is, the sooner we really start to live, that's part of what this book is about. Luv you guys for your feed back and your winning personalities =)

I thought this was going to be some strange happy poem, by the title, I like it all the same. I hope your paradise later gives you wings, and sensors painful stings :)

[Jerald Infant Jeyarethinam]

It can be perceived as a strange happy poem from a different perspective:)
