Sometimes I feel like I have static on the brain.
My thoughts are anything but clear.
What is it that has my brain going haywire?
Ominously, I wonder if it is you.
The anxiety this places in me,
Seem to tear me into two.

Have you any idea?
Or even a clue?
The only thing I have on my mind
Seems to just be you.

I think about the happy days,
And the bad days too.
But no mater what I do,
I can't get rid of the thoughts on you.

cool poem, you been looking into my head again?   j/k
We both seem to be going through similar problems with love, I wish you luck in yours

BTW, i think you made a typo in the very end and said can isntead of can't, which changes it quite a bit

Jer:
You'd better keep up the good work, because even though I replied, I really like this poem.  You can't say that I challenge you, 'cuz your poetry is more of a challenge to me to keep writing better.  Keep it up!!!

Hey, this poem was really good. I like the way you start the poem off already grabbing my interest, and also the word "ominously" really helps set tone.  Nice job, and good luck.

Wonderful Jer!  I'm impressed! I like the way you portray the feeling of the one track mind thing.  Great work!

jer: i like this poem a lot... in this case i think the lack of meter actually ADDS to the poem and its meaning... you are, after all, talking about static and confusion... very good job  

sincerely,
jerome the boy with no brain

 A savage place! as holy and enchanted
As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover!
