Madness

Never
apologize
for feeling too
recklessly,

the greatest lessons
are
always
learned
through

Madness
Madness

A pinching nerve.
Oh, how severe.
Though, this one
Occurs when something is near.
Sit back,
Imagine. Then,
Zoom in.
"The sights are crystal clear".
Take a deep breath,
And realize what is fear.

You don't.

Realize that this "anxiety",
Is a manifestation of your lack of self-acceptance.
Embrace all possibilities,
That lead to your desires;
While inspiring those around you
To keep your flame true.
Then tackle every obstacle.
Realize, life doesn't fear you.

Typical yet cynical
Stress powers forward
Like a drunk,
After a shot from his cylindrical.
That liquid confidence that'll leave you "mystikal"(rapper), belligerent, yet touchy.
But monthly, I wonder what makes me comfy.
Money? Or maybe a "honey"?
And I don't mean the stuff that bees make...
My fists shake,
Because her presence alleviates...
Well, at least I appreciate the thoughts of what she might be like.
Lucid thoughts crowd my mental, when near the cloned Aphrodite;
Resulting in lucid paralysis or
Something similar to stage fright.
So would the make her medusa?
Gruesome to think.... but I think in need a shrink.
Because every time I blink I see snapshots,
which is why I spill this ink.
An echo of a memory,
But far more complex than you think.
It's like her face was tattooed to my eyelids...
The thought of her resonates daily.
Doesn't matter the cost,
I just want her as my lady.
As often that she's seen,
You'd think I'd come clean.
But even in this dream,
things aren't easy as it seems.
