I am Not Afraid

 

I am not insane

It is not suppose to be this way

Just want to feel again

 

Darkness lies beneath the surface

Demons pushing there way through the flesh

 

Just need one more day

Before they take me away

A day to smile and laugh

Before it is all taken away

 

My life is falling apart

As time drifts by

 

I am not afraid

Of the pain

 

I am not afraid

That I am not able to stay

 

I am not insane

It is not suppose to be this way

Just want to feel again

This is pleasantly vague, I must admit. It applies to basically any situation, therefore, the reader can certainly relate to such a poem! The beginning line "I am not insane" reminded me of A7X's "Almost Easy"... sorry, had to throw that out there. ;)

But seriously. This poem and it's urgent tones are very impressive and give off a great emotional appeal to the audience. ^^ Great work!

I understand for I relate... you know the demons that haunt my soul.... I wonder when they will take me away.

Sometime it is hard to see daylight. We must battle a internal struggle to feel human again. I can feel the emotion and desire to make sense of life. A outstanding poem.

I can see the torment that fills your being. You do a great job relaying what consumes you. Nicely composed.

I understood every word here! I so can relate to this. Sometimes i want to go, and sometimes i want to stay. It's so hard to go and it's so hard to stay. Brilliant, and beautiful poem!!

Very well written poem. I can feel this person's life falling apart, yet she's willing to take the pain but not yet not yet. Not sure if i interpreted it right but excellent poem.
