Asylum





My pad and my pen,
my thoughts to mend

From the world I hide,
in this chamber inside

I can't adapt to the light,
I only live in the night

when it's dark, all is calm,
in my safe inner- realm

let me be alone in here,
outside the walls is my fear

deep in trance, not a sigh,
I'll write my words,'til I die





Author notes

#3.... It is a somewhat suicidal poem, though it's not spelled out...

    Write 'till you die...

    I share your sentiment... I will write until I die. None is as good a confessor as your faithful pad and pen....

    Keep writing...

    I can see what you mean, it more hints the topic than actually tells you about it... When we strub our pain like in that song, we just pen our pain... I do that a lot. I can grasp sadness and I suppose life is our asylumn and I guess sometimes poetry and or other hobbies are our therapists or our tabs... So yeah, they help us to feel better.

    Very powerful

    Wow, this poem evokes all sorts of emotions in me and makes me curious about you the poet. I read your biography before coming back to read this poem, as I am interested to know more about you and why you feel safer in the dark and why you have so much pent up anger? Poetry is an excellent way to express one's inner feelings, a way to vent your anger. I sincerely want to be your friend, so if you ever need to vent to somebody, I'm here for you. Love, hugs and sunny smiles.
    PS thank you so much for your comments on my poem "Autumn Dreams" I am a lover of nature, and it is to nature that I go, when I need peace, tranquility and a place to find myself.
