Nothing is what it seems
And yet I wander on in life
Living, yet not alive.
I see faces
So many smiling and normal
And I wonder
Why can't that be me?
I am trapped
Nothing is normal
Reality is a dream I do not comprehend
I will never comprehend
Maddening!
Screaming!
Crying to be heard!
Why am I never heard?
These walls that contain me
Drown me, weaken me
I am nothing here
But then what is nothing
When nothing is what it seems?

Now who can tell that I just finished a psych rotation???LOL!

Hi Sunshine and Marge!
Thanks for responding, I appreciate your comments.  It's good to pop in and check out some good poetry, while I am supposed to be writing my research paper.  LOL!--This is my sanity break.  
Things are going well, and I just may pop in more, in between semesters.
Thanks again--this forum is wonderful

mariee66 - perhaps at times nothing is what it seems, but then perhaps at times it is...

BRAVO!!! Oh Marie, I love the psychological winding twist in this, sweet friend, this is excellent, sometimes nothing feels like something but it takes something to find out what that nothing is! (sigh) This is wondferful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Marie, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Wow!  Thanks for the replies, so very much!
Angel--I am glad you found the twist.  I was afraid it would be missed. (that sort of rhymed, eh?)
