Sometimes I wonder.
I feel I'm going
two kinds of crazy.

the first is
ordinary madness

the second is
extraordinary insanity.

Yet somehow, they mix into a great fog.
Impenetrable.

They'll say, She's come undone.
Slowly unraveled,
like an old knit sweater
each thread floating up
to dissolve in the sky
or is it the sea? one's just a bit wetter

It happened slowly.
Such a shame.
Like the frog that was boiled;
she hopped out a bit too late.
one word at a time
slipped from her grasp
like that one tiny eggshell taunting
"TORO! TORO!"
can't grab a word by its horns.

I ad lib, substituting a synonym.

I snap out of the sky(ocean)
regrounding myself.

The madness is perhaps early Alzheimer's.
I'm too young to grow old.

The insanity feels more like I'm trapped
but outside my head.
A balloon a careless child let go of.
I drift
dream.
wonder.    
unraveling        
continuously.          

I think my problem is that
I don't believe in reality anymore.

How do I know England exists?
How do I know we landed on the moon?
How do I know that my friend is real?
How do I know I'm not dreaming?
How do I know I'm not someone else's dream?

Once you think about it-
you realize
You don't know - and you can't prove-
Anything

I suppose that's why I believe in God.
He grounds me.

Nothing else makes sense.
Thanks to Muse for the title.

When I join something
Or get motivated to do something
You are there

To tell me that I am bad at this
Bad at that

You don't control me, SIR.
No one ever does,
No one ever did.....

Not until I started falling..
Falling into an infinite abyss
Of darkness and loneliness

It was horrible
It still is.
Because i am still falling
and failing to grab to anything.
I keep falling..
Having thoughts to end it for myself
But can I do it??
Whilst in an abyss??
*Can I?

She was a true princess
on this world
She was rich and wild
and free

She always got what she wanted
without any questions or doubts
I
was her prince

The prince who would look at her
and start blushing
due to her exuberant beauty
She was like a red rose in a garden of purple tulips

Her beauty was unmatched by anyone
The Prince loved her so much
he was ready to do anything....anything
just to make the princess love him

The Princess however loathed him
she hated him more than he loved her
She wanted him gone from her life
But he wouldn't leave

He was afraid to let go of her
He was a kind person
unrealistic, and dreamed of living with her
But she wanted him dead

And one day, she did it
She found her inner strength
and finished him off
for once and for all

And left her kingdom with the one she desired
But she wasn't feeling loved
She didn't like her new prince
She yearned for the old one

But he was gone
little did she realize
that he actually loved her
for who she was
and not for what she was
Real life?? Nah
