Intermission

Back to Reality

At times I feel such
compression of mind
when voices of people
I love most, combine
to pound in my head
when nothing seems right 
Chaos rapes and takes me
to that place where I have
no say, and no sanity.

(it's gonna be ok)

Sometimes I feel that
my breath has escaped me
while I'm gasping for air
emotion violates me
red is the colour
when my tears fall to form
pools of rage and revulsion
and I'm gripped in the clamp
of emotional convulsion.

(just ride out the storm)

When these moments have passed
I lie drained of all energy
the veil slips from my mind
blissful silence surrounds me
Did you notice at all?
You were there all along.
Did you see me implode?
What did you think of my
heart, stripped and exposed?

(your stronger than this)

Though you'd rather ignore me
while I'm falling to pieces
at least your still here, though
you witness my weakness.
You centre my insanity.
Enveloped with indifference
the overwhelming nonchalance
brings me to life, maybe
with you I do have a chance

(you don't need no more drama)
