Crazy
Written by Zelda
Note: Meant to be song lyrics more than poetry. Something metallic and angry, probably in the style of Linkin Park or Hoobastank. Don’t steal it.
I huddle alone
In the darkness and silence
These visions and voices
they won’t leave my head
And you can’t
Console me
I don’t have the space to
hear what you have said
And I’m shattered
And shattering
Shaking
And shaken
And shivering
Shit just won’t leave me
alone
And I’m crumbling
Crawling
And cracking
And crazing
And crazy-
I swear I’m not crazy
I swear it’s these visions
and voices
Won’t leave me alone
And maybe
Just lucky just maybe
I’ll leave this behind with
a mind I can still call my own
I’m tracking
And trawling
Trembling
And tracing
And trying
I’ve tried to stop feeling
so cold
I’m breathing
Just breathing
And bracken
And breaking
And broken-
I swear I’m not broken
I swear that I’ll bray like
a lamb
But sing in lion’s roar
And maybe
Just lucky just maybe
I’ll leave this behind with
a soul that won’t fall through the floor
And I know
That you can’t reach me
I’m reaching
I’m retching
I’m reeling and
I know
That you can’t rescue me
from all the nothing I’m feeling
