Confusions of a sane mind

Confusion of a Sane Mind

She was nothing to me a year ago
but that changed ever so slow
she came in being so perfect to me
changing my world indefintly

I tried to stay sane
while I lived through this pain
looking at her throw the window pane
hoping she looks my way (but it never worked)

She changed my world ever so slow
making me believe I should go
and do something with my life
making me wanna pick up that knife

I tried to stay sane
as I was put throught this pain
others were watching me change
wondering if I was going insane

Confusions of a sane mind
these things change the world everytime
Confusions of a sane mind
when the world knows they are not mine

I wonder if I will ever change
as I walk down memory lane
thinking of the times we talked
of the places we walked together

Confusions of a sane mind
making me go insane
Confusions of a sane mind
are these thoughts still mine

I think this poem has the feel of a Bob Dylan song, or of other classic balladeers. I really love these lines:-

"Confusions of a sane mind
these things change the world everytime
Confusions of a sane mind
when the world knows they are not mine "

I like the feeling from this that thoughts come from the outside, though perhaps it's just the `things' that are referred.

Very fascinating, melodic writing!

I agree that this has a kind of Bob Dylan "tinge" to it, I guess, but whether or not it's better than Dylan's work is up to the individual reader. I for one believe Dylan is best songwriter of the 20th century.

There have been many times in my life when I wanted a girl I knew I could not have. I admit, some were celebrities, but when I find out they're with someone, it doesn't affect me much. But when I like someone I actually have a shot with and find out she's with some buffoon, it hurts.

this poem was very deep. it expresses that you couldnt stand not to have the person you love. i can realate to it!

"She changed my world ever so slow" meaning full things often happen in slow degrees
never more true than when stimulated by others,
Welcome onboard and i hope to read more of your work
