Skeleton Crew
By Stephen King
see related~~~Another Way to Fly~~~
"In this misery I've found words I thought were lost."
Your voice lingers like the ghosts in my head,
Like the whispers I hear from under my bed;
We converse everyday and I forget you're unreal,
Insanity's come much too close for me to feel-
Out of touch from day to day with mundane tasks.
Carve on a new smile when I rise, paint on my mask;
Losing sense of time, sense of self, as days drag by-
Find another way to forget, another way to fly.Fatally Yours,
Moody-Broody Melancholia

i like the idea here, and in fact am writing a post that seems familiar to this. out of touch... trying to find a new way to fly. i love how you put that.
@a_postmodern_nobody - ha, thanks. I feel like there should be more. it kinda ends abruptly, but oh well. I can only write so many words before the disappointment and frustration of struggling makes me want to cry, or scream. Whichever seems more reasonable. And for the record, I'm fine, or at least I will be. I only make this comment because many people before you have bothered to ask or make comments and it drives me nuts. x.x
@MyHomeIsWriting - the struggling i know of, but you don't need to worry about me. i won't pry into whether you are okay or not. i'm one of those people who revels in his depression and insanity, and often has to explain that though i'm writing suicidal things, i'm not thinking of suicide. this can be a bad thing, when someone is really trying to reach out, but i can't be that concerned for my own reasons.
@a_postmodern_nobody - I didn't figure you were one of those people, but the past has proven me wrong before.
well, i can at times ask, though only when i'm drunk. so i may have asked you before. but usually i'm too wrapped in me to see anything but the lines you write.
@a_postmodern_nobody - Finally, someone who sees what I do for just what it is.
lovely
I haven't read a traditional rhyming, rhythmical poem in a while
@jzrocker - Thanks
