I span the whole world didn’t
Fit me,
Fix me in my mind.
Sentences  became hard stretches
Reality long left behind.

I swam the tide arisen
In me,
Save me from the flood.
Words are daggers see them scheming
Within the lies of wrist and blood.

I cried, she wept softly
With me,
Keep me sane tonight.
Soothed the ills that madness slipped me,
Caressed will not from almost might.

you writing my spells for me Grinch?

I loved this, and I like the loose sentence structured into the perfect rhythm.

I have no idea what your last line means? But it works for me!

And even if I'd never read a thing you'd written until this one? I would say the same thing:

I am a fan.
