Intersection Insanity.

by Courageous Dreamer   May 18, 2008


Last night, was one of those nights.
I couldn't stop thinking of you.
I layed awake in bed, wide awake.
I tossed, I turned, I tossed, I turned,
Nearly a whole hour had passed, and
I just couldn't stop thinking about you.
And I don't know why.

That constant battle within me went on again.
I wanted to give up, but I couldn't.
I just had to keep going, theres no point in giving up.
But, right now... I see no point in holding on.

My mind bounces back and forth, constantly.
I'm lost, my thoughts are everything.
I just need to clear my mind of things,
But is right now that right time?

I have had so many chances, I can't count them.
But, I haven't taken them. I feel stupid.
I feel like a failure. I regret not trying.
I just can't figure out why I haven't tried.

I'm so confused. I don`t know what to do.
I don't know which path to take. Which would be right. Which would make me happy, which would make me sad.
I don't know which one would work. I just don't know.
I just need to get everything straight. I need to figure out what's best for me.

I need to put everything aside, and give it a try.
It doesn't matter if I end up coming out of this crying or happier than ever before.
I need to try,
I need to express every little thing to you.
So you truely know where I stand.

I know I can do it, I just need the confidence to pull me through this. And, right now.. That's not there.

*Thanks to Mr. Darcy for this wonderful title.*

    Right now I don't know what to say, or do I?

    Should I compliment you on structure first, or the emotion contained throughout? First or second, second or first? My mind is muddled and knows not what to do for the best? LOL

    The poem raises questions throughout and thankfully concludes at the end. There is a nice tension to this piece. giving the reader a real sence of your train of thought and consequencely a dramatic flavour.

    I would personally re-title this piece, as it is too obvious, well that is my thought! Maybe Crossroads, or Intersection insanity, Crossroad conundrum? just an idea?

    A good write. 5/5
