So many words so little time to get all out and place in rhyme..
Pressure….
Doesn’t look to good on me.
Too many thoughts swirling around,
get a pen and write them down..
Insanity…
is for choosing not to see.
Not all feelings bring us pain,
but cry when happy just the same,
The river….
of emotions can run deep.
Clock still ticking out of time
The perfect words get hard to find
The pages…
are getting harder now to see,
Bright white light…
Extended hand…
Leads you to the promised land..
A survivor…
from the realm of humanity.

love this

"Not all feelings bring us pain,
but cry when happy just the same,
The river….
of emotions can run deep."

One could liken this too a whirlpool,  
swirling and sometimes changing direction
and never ending until some unforseen force
jumps in and breaks the motion....

Yes, poetry can be this way...but so much
fun when you write something really good.
