Sanity

As the sun starts to rise high in the sky,

My world starts to fade into black.

Illogical thoughts swim through my foggy mind

A corner for sanity is found way in the back.

I've been told I'm a suffering soul,

As I stagger forward, seeing only what I want to see.

But this is no delirium, this is anything but

It's my creative gift which makes me crazy.  

The world may not accept who I am,

But they can’t reject who they don’t truly know.

I’m waiting for the one who looks into my oval eyes

And really sees what is behind their emerald-green glow.

What is beyond the stories I produce

This talent I’ve been told I possess 

Give me a word, as random as bathtub

And you will understand why people say I am blessed.

But sometimes I wish this “blessing” would go away,

And my thoughts would conform with humanity.

I’m willing to give up my one calling in life

Just to regain my sanity.
