Chaos

By cre

The situation's normal
The people are just fine
The chaos is inside me
It's fucking up my mind

Spinning out of touch
Forget reality
They say the world makes sense
The insanity's in me

The walls are shifting in and out
And I wonder what you mean
And I even have to question
If what is real is what I've seen

But then I keep on spinning
And I know that I am right
Fuck you all I've got it down
With amazing clarity of sight

The situation's normal
The people are just fine
And I really don't give a shit
If they think I've lost my mind

Cause now my world is spinning
And now my world is flying
And I just dance ecstatically
Even though you say I'm dying

I try to keep on dancing
Tired but can't stop spinning
But finally it spits me out
And leaves me lost at the beginning

The situation's normal
The people were just fine
Withering to the ground
I hear you say I lost my mind

Now I'm just too tired
And I wonder what you mean
And I wonder where I was
And I wonder what you've seen

You say that I was spinning
But exhausted I just cry
And I wonder why I'm stupid
And I wish that I could die

The situation's normal
The people were just fine
But that was just the day before
I finally lost my mind

    Blackdenim7 referred me to "The Chaos" but I guess this might be it. Greatly enjoyed the brush strokes with a reality shifting in and out of focus perhaps. Last stanza was superb, thanks.

  • A former member wrote: wow, all of your poetry is really moving, and very emotional, keep it up

  • A former member wrote: I'd like to show this poem to everyone who's ever called me insane; I can't explain it nearly as well as you did.

    Rarely, but ineptly every once in a while, I happen upon a poem that creates too much thought and too much feeling to exclaim about in this little box. All I can really say is, my god...you explained it all so well. It all came out so wonderfully and made
