drowning in insanity

drowning in insanity

A Poem by Colleen Margot Lee

words come tangled
i cant explain
all i fell
all the pain

what would happen
if it werent for you
i would go
not be true

it's so real
i can barely stand
the pain, the hurt
the single strand

the we come
then we go
one by one
we never show

it's so hard
not to cry
to think ill never
see those eyes

a single drop
to kill all
comes so slowly
bombs to fall

for the future
here's to the past
race through time
you dont react

i close my eyes
i say goodbye
do not worry
do not cry

these mixed emotions
i wont take
fall asleep
and never wake

i dream of a time
when things are good
love and happiness
like things should

think of you
and start to cry
i lay asleep
hope to die

my mind goes dark
my thoughts are gone
darkness , darkness
shall prolong

all the hope
all the faith
nothing is there
only hate

heavy burden
is my pack
only weakness
on my back

there is no future
that i can see
only grief
inside of me

i go along
on my path
try so hard
to not look back

how i long
for us to be
together as one
happily

overrated reality
seems surreal
dust in the wind
this is real

i need love
but all i got
misery and hate
am forgot

rain rain
on a windy day
dark and cold
it blows away

what you did
in the end
my broken heart
will never mend

as i go
i walk away
wish i could
only stay

what is done
it's all i feel
none is good
none is real

You will never see
Its all to blame
Drowning Drowning
we are all insane

words come tangled
i cant explain
all i fell
all the pain

what would happen
if it werent for you
i would go
not be true

it's so real
i can barely stand
the pain, the hurt
the single strand

the we come
then we go
one by one
we never show

it's so hard
not to cry
to think ill never
see those eyes

a single drop
to kill all
comes so slowly
bombs to fall

for the future
here's to the past
race through time
you dont react

i close my eyes
i say goodbye
do not worry
do not cry

these mixed emotions
i wont take
fall asleep
and never wake

i dream of a time
when things are good
love and happiness
like things should

think of you

my mind goes dark

Drowning Drowning
we are all insane

Brilliant use of contrast between life and death, joy and pain, love and hate... Your imagery is so vivid and alive! Incredible piece...
