I Think I'm Going Mad

By Gunslinger

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I may be going crazy- My life is just a blur... I guess I finally realized That things aren't like they were. My home is in a turmoil- My business life the same... And a haunting voice keeps telling me- "You must bear all the blame." A fool I was, and I still am- To think that life could hold... Happiness for men like me, Who's hearts and minds are cold. Cold from harsh reality- Decisions we have made... When it comes to social grace- We never made the grade. I loved and then I pushed away- The very one I loved. Sometimes it seems there's no return- When from one's heart you're shoved. Some people say I'm crazy... I guess that that is bad... But the thing that really bothers me... I think I'm going mad.
