"Sanity Lost"

twisted
in a web
of confused reality,
i struggle to escape,
and find myself
further
entrapped.
will the screaming
ever end--
but
in tentative repose,
a prelude
to
more madness.

"Truth"

words whirling,
pounding in pain,
my mind screams;
only silence
calls back to me.

spinning 'round;
circles or squares?
I can't remember
anymore.

Just you,
and the tears,
a hidden waterfall
welling within me,
and I dive into the mist...

to search for something
I never had.
"Wish"

I see you,
standing
so near me.
I reach out,
you disappear,
a fragile
apparition,
all but a wish,
fading into
my fantasies
once more.
