A spot on the wall that changes and grows.
I can see it but no one knows.
Thoughts in my head are they real.
The paint on the wall begins to peal.
The sights of illusions change my mind.
Everywhere I look thing of the kind.
This world apears before my eyes.
my vision blurs weeps and sighs.
Tracers cross the burning sky.
Running hot until they die.
A trail of dust left behind.
All of the sights they'd blow your mind.
Dreams that grow deep in you.
Forever haunting and coming true.
The colors I hear get to loud.
The sounds I see begin to croud.
The feelings I taste seem so dry.
The foods I sense begin to cry.
This world I've entered is different you see.
Everything is wild and backwards to me.
I've looked for a way to get back out.
I see people pass they can't hear me shout.
Someone please hear my call.
Forever traped in the spot on the wall.

Like this one too. I've been feeling a little like that myself lately. Spot on the wall, what a good way to put it.

But love came laughing by and
Cried "I enter everywhere!!!"

Thanx all for your input.  A guy at work showed me this sight.  I've got about 1500 poems that have just been sitting in folders at home.  Some are better than others but all of them are my thoughts and feelings.  A bit scarry Wait till you see some of the others.
