I Could Be Insane

-copyrighted- back off =)

What is it this time?
I'm stretching out all these lines,
Crashing to a halt,
This is all their fault..
Preamble
Let's gamble
I'll ramble
Example..

Broken speech, cluttered minds, useless thoughts, impulsive actions, frail bones, fatigued faces, and everything we forgot we wanted. What's left in this for me? There's too much, but there's nowhere near enough. Life is too short for me (but everything just takes too damn long). It all appears at once, while it all drops away slow enough for me to see it. It's just what I wanted -but you can have it back- It's not what I needed. We can skip my turn, we'll just say you listened. What's left? How come? Why not? When and where? Who's fault is it? Is there someone to blame? Does he have an alibi? Does it withhold the light? Where did the light go? Too many questions, too little time, too little patience, too little focus.

I ramble, and it may look like tattered misconceptions, but it all makes sense to me. I don't know if I've ever had a clear thought. It starts, then it ends without a center. I always know what it means, or what it's supposed to mean.

    It's not just a poem but a heart and mind revealed in words, just wonderful, a comment about reading it slowly is so correct. To understand it one should concentrate.

    You know, I really gave this poem a 5/5 because it was so different. It was almost refreshing to see a new style that I myself have yet to see. Although it is more of a blog than a poem, I stil find it very emotional and you can feel it with every sentence that passes.

    The begining of the poem was almost as if it was pretty good. If you could do a whole poem out of that, and maybe make the lines a little longer im sure it would be beyond amazing. Because within those 6-8 lines you held a rhythm and you kept it from faultering just long enough to start your rant =)

    Great Work.

    When i read your poems i have to read it slowly so i can understand (or think that i understand) most of the time ppl just read it quickly and not really stoping and taking thier time to really understand the emotion or anything really. so great job i love your poems.
