it's babble

the ideas fall out of my head
they spill onto the floor and
slither away

you turned me insane
i calmly informed him,
you turned me insane

the love that built inside me
is decaying away
into absolutely nothing

and all because

you turned me insane
i calmly informed him
i am now insane.

what pain is this?
to kill a living thing?
to m u r der the passion you spawned?

what pain is this?
that i wither away
into nothing at all?

you promised me something
better and yet here i sit
in my maniacal state
wondering--hoping
my mind will recover
you promised me something
of which i am now not
quite sure
anything at all would assuage
my crazed heart and mind.

so i will stand in the doorframe
when the earthquake comes
and i will close my lungs when
the rain begins to eat at my skin
and i will stop the beat of my heart
when you come near me again

you turned me insane,
i sobbed into my hands,
you have turned me completely insane.
