Insanity Found
written by tyosdream11:58 PM 2/7/05Wild and haunting laughter
Echoes through my brain,
Clawing to my very soul;
Assuring that I'm insane.
Visions that I see at night
Telling what is true,
I lay in bed and start to plan;
I know what I must do.
For things are seen much differently
Through the glowing eyes of Death,
Now I lay in shadows dark
And wait to take life's breath.
A burst of strength and quickness
Is all the process takes,
And when the knife tears through the throat
Oh, what a sound it makes!
But here I sit in this padded cell
So clean and oh, so white,
ANd plot a way to find escape
Into the dark of night.
Searching deep inside my head
What do they hope to find?
The history of this broken man
Who slowly lost his mind! |
