The darkness sets in,
it consumes my soul.
I begin to lose,
all control.
My eyes see red,
I lose all senses.
Have I lost my mind?
Have I reached the edge?
Or have I just snapped?
Am I crazy?
Am I insane?
What have I done?
This wasn't supposed to happen.
Have I gone insane?
A thousand voices scream,
in my head.
Go away.
Leave me alone.
Alone I live with my demons.

It reminds me of Ozzy Osbournes song "Am I going insane."

Ah yes, the bout with insanity. it seems to be plauging many of us these days. if you can ask yourself the question and consider it as a possibility, chances are you're not. liked the phrasing.

This was an interesting spin on the brink and the jumping off thereof, of insanity. Very well written and intriguing method of writing. Why answer the questions when you could simply leave the reader to question their own sanity?..Very sneaky, but good...

this is an excellent use of your talent when it comes to the dark side of writing. i have always enjoyed the way that you can take darkness and all of the emotions that go with it and you can turn it into writes that i cant stop reading. keep up the dark writes, they fit you perfectly. pen on, dear friend.
