Insane?

Insane?

A Poem by Ink Seductress
"

Am i insane?..

"

What is the definition of insane?

 Can someone tell me?

Because I have become lost in this maze; my mind,

And to this maze, I fear there is no end.

 

Medication can only staunch the voices,

Constantly ringing in my head,

Malicious little voices screaming;

“You’re better off dead!”

 

Alcohol- oh sweet alcohol; you’re my only friend,

It’s only when I’m intoxicated,

That I can escape from this dread;

Where s**t begins to make sense..

 

What is the definition of insane?

Can someone tell me?

Because I have become lost in this maze; my mind,

And to this maze, there is NO end--

Your not insane - you wouldnt be asking that question if you were Niyia - you'd be too busy trying to get to Trafalgar for the next naval battle (Napolean complex) to ask such self-searching questions.
Soemtimes we can't tune out the 'noise' and we become confused (I had an episode yesterday of such a confusion)
We need to take a step back and breathe and ask friends help if need be (Thank YOU - you know who you are all of YOU) :)))

When we feel this way we need to ask ourselves Niyia - how many times have we felt this way in the past? What was the worst that happened? It didnt last forever. We survived - because thats what WE (collectively) do - we survive !

You have written so many people from WC and farther afield here at so many instances of their lives that you are (as Aaron stated) just too much in tune - thats why alcohol helps because it is numbs those receptors. We need to find a way to replace the alcohol with something as good at distracting the brain but which is positive. You have one in your hand - its called a PEN !
God Bless

Haha definitely not insane... maybe more in touch with yourself than most people in this world. I love reading your words and the way you write. It is definitely my style of writing so it makes it that much more enjoyable to read. I really enjoyed your work. Favorite part was "malicious little voices screaming; You're better off dead!" Great work

Very enjoyable read... keep it up and send me read requests on anything you want me to read :)

Don't get too close, you might not like what you find, I've spent my life disguising myself, finding places for my demons to hide. Don't say I didn't warn ya, cause I really did try. You'll fall under.. more..
