----------------------------------------------
What is Insanity?
A sea or a lake?
Or a never ending hole?
Or is it when you lose your soul?

Can Insanity be a sign of things foretold?
Or a symbol of power, a power old?
Yet it comes in different forms,
Forms untold of, forms unknown.

It creeps into the back of your soul,
and stays there, unwanted.
There is not a soul that isn't haunted,
by this unwelcomed ghost.

Wonderful poem, Chibi! Just a note: You have a typo in the first line of the second verse, 'Isantity', I think you meant 'Insanity'. Also, I would suggest that you delete the message at the top since you have designated this to be voted for as a book submission, only the body of the poem should be posted, not notes to the readers.
