How can insanity be explained
outside of the formalized definition of true mania
a loss of self
panic, voices, delusion
ill illusions
locking me away and throwing away the key
the mental anguish of it all
an impediment
a killing
a murder
a redrum drama series
snapped
mind disjointed on so many differing level’s
seeing me, as I mirror gaze
failing however to recognize the reflection sarong back
stopping to think how do I get back
back to the me, lost in the reflection
a constant question
constantly asked
it’s so baffling to grasp
the anwer why, there lies my defeat, and the answer I continue to seek

Turning Pages of Life
Life’s like a book — some parts are good, others not so much. Still, keep turning the pages; you might find the best chapter next. If someone hurts you, choose to forgive or just let it be, but never change who you are for them.
