Confusion?
Aaron P Jul 2010
What is confusion really?
If confusion is the act of being confused how do you know when you are?
When I see her I don’t think I’m confused I know the feelings are true.
But when we talk the confusion rears its head.
It isn’t an emotion?
Is it an object?
Sometimes it seems it is.
It only appears around certain people.
Around certain subjects.
You can’t be confused unless confusion is around you?
Writing this has only made me more confused about what confusion is?
Am I confusion?
Is she confusion?
Are these feelings deep down just nothing but teenage confusion?
How can I feel anymore if all she brings is never ending confusion?
This is just nothing but repetitive nonsense now?
But isn’t that what confusion always ends up being?
I guess it’s hard to answer the question,
What is confusion really?
Because it’s just to… well confusing.
Maybe it’s because she makes it that way?
I don’t know anymore.
I’m just to confused..
Random writing because I'm confused and well a few other people I know are too.. Thoughts anyone? I'm kinda liking posting stuff here now. Now that I have an open forum and I know some people actually like this stuff and I am realizing I can actually write things down and enjoy them I'm going to be writing more and more if I can :)

Confusion
Andrew Rueter Oct 2017
I can hear confusion clap
Could it be confusion relapse?
Is the problem confusion perhaps?

I sit in solitary confinement
To perfect my confusion refinement
He guards my door
Like a chore
From inside my lonely stall
I can hear him take calls
I stare into a concrete grey
That blocks the Sun's rays

If I told my guard I loved him
Would he free me from this cell?
Would he free me from this hell?
Or would he release me
To the murderers and thieves?
Or would he release me
To a life where he leaves?
I sit silently in solitary
And enjoy his presence
I'm not allowed in his monastery
For I'm a mere peasant

Confusion grasps
I scream
Muffled gasps
In the wind
Confusion *****

I fear the day the guard leaves his post
Because he's the one I love the most
He's a circumstance of my condition
When he's my confusion's ambition
Making him the only one I see
So how can I ever be free?

I have become a confusion shell
I live in a confusion cell
In love I fell

Perpetuity
Erin Roma Dec 2016
A yearning she cannot fathom
A whole 'nother level, she was mind blown
Hoping to blind herself with deception
Perpetually drowning in confusion

Said that she would never again be ****** with your sorcery
So everyone told her to be extra wary
But I guess that's a quality she lack entirely
Now she's drowning in confusions, perpetually

She never planned a pursuance
Though the force is strong, 'twas only a nuisance
She saw your face, she was caught in a trance
Perpetually drowning in confusion, an abundance

This animal is in dire need of suppression
And so she did, filling herself with depression
But then the prey showed a different sign of intention
Now she's perpetually drowning in confusion

Your sudden interest seems unfitting
Could it really be? So close to believing
It opened more, showed more, she's heeding
In perpetual confusion, she is drowning

She was taken aback, this impossibility
Yet you opened it wider, the eventuality
Or so she was led to believe, the absurdity
The confusion is drowning her in perpetuity

Doubts, doubts, doubts were running
In her head, seconds from wilding
But you calmed her fears, ever growing
Deeper in perpetual confusion, she's drowning

With every positive response of yours
She was driven crazy, hoping for more
For a moment, it felt certain, she was sure
Perpetually drowning in confusion, no more

Now her true self was put into question
For the longest time, involuntarily shunned
Is she truly worthy of this identification
Perpetually drowning in confusion

She was quite lost in traffic
The signals were all but messed up
Wandering around like some lunatic
She's clueless of what's true enough

Perpetually drowning in confusion...
You were a swimmer...
Yet you never even bothered to save her.
