Insanity

Beautiful
as the sun falling, dying
flooding the sky with color
of yellow
orange
blood
poison
death

The mind drowns
spinning,
painting all it touches

And one cant help
but smile

as the world goes dark
the white coat falls
from the closet
and buckles keep it
snug and tight

And one cant help
but giggle

it is not wrong
though the doctors disagree
it is not horrid
though the masses cant see

no longer does the mind follow
no longer in the box
outside the box
around the box
it is the box
burning
in a fire to dance
and celebrate

lay a kiss upon the cheek
and love
as the blood spills
as the words no longer
has 'truth'
logic's long fled this place

And though a smile touches lips
the eyes are empty
confused
and the sense has run
returned to the childhood
of understanding


'tis beautiful,

as the sun falling, dying.

Author notes

Prompt : Insanity has always puzzled some people, and for some it is just an interesting subject of speech or writing. Describe it.

    You have done a nice job describing a person in pain. The imagry of the anxiety seems very modern and has a cold feel in the beginning. As it goes on, you become childlike and scared. You make nature references. Nice job. Return the favor?
