Place To Place

As I wonder off to a place of serenity,
the world pulls me back to chaos and misery.
No escape, no wonder to free me from this world I live in.
One blink and I feel as if I’ve committed a sin.
Mortified, petrified, and lost behind the many souls of living.
So many souls like me are crying.
Disappearing and reappearing; a constant battle between sadness and happiness.
I hear the misery calling out my name more often and so in me raises the sadness.
The happiness has hidden behind my sullen heart.
And as I try to pick myself up during this time my heart threatens to fall apart.
So, sometimes I cry alone; the solemn world creeps along.
I hate the sorrowful world and I scream not to belong.
Too late, too long I’ve been born already.
I can’t escape this life full of tragedy.
Some days I feel immobile, no strength left to move on.
Though, surprisingly I still live on.
Thus, my feelings become like stone, almost like comatose.
Intriguing isn’t it to live this life despite living to the point of insane.
But, then again who is sane, what is sane?
As I wonder of to a place of serenity,
the world pulls me back to chaos and misery.
And then sane and insane both become the same.

Merging serenity with misery and finding the balance between insanity and sanity are some nice topics for discussion. You've raised some thought-provoking ideas for debate and adapted them to yourself. Nice.

Never give up. There is every reason to live. For instance, you reading this means you woke up this morning. Your creator gave you the best gift there is.

this poem is very well written. as i am reading through it i can feel what you are or were going through. it's amazing how there are days you do just want to give up and throw the towel in but for some reason we make it through to another day. keep your head up high and you will be fine...

Sanity? It interferes with insanity.

To have great poets there must be great audiences too.

Walt Whitman, American Poet (1819-1892)
