Nobody's home

I say how I feel and feel how I say,
I tell tales of my victories and of my dismay

so listen to me and I'm sure that you'll find,
I'm a intriguing man who's out of his mind

I tell you the truth for I refuse to lie,
if I jumped out this window I surly can fly

I don't think I'm normal, I'm totally nuts,
stare into my mind before the door shuts

I know not what I am but I know what I'm not,
I would say what that is but I surly cannot

I'm trapped inside a world of harmless delusions,
am I insane, you can draw your own conclusions

  • This poem is pretty cool. I thought it was funny. I wonder how it would turn out if it were longer? The rhyme & flow were great!

    Haha, I love the second stanza. And it's true, to boot . You have a really good way with rhyming words, like the last two in the last two lines awesomelyamazingandinsane! Also, the line that was fourth from last, I had to read it over a few times, but I love its meaning =] In life, you may never find out who you are, but you're bound to figure out a dozen different people you're not
    GREAT job
    diggin it majorly

  • This is awesome Dusty! Great write and keep up the good work! You are special to me and don't you EVER forget that! ttyl bud!

  • I love when I can read something and not want to choke the person because their rhyme was forced. Your rhyme flowed so well and the whole write pieced itself together.
    Wonderful work
