I'm Driving Me Crazy
3/3/03 - 11:00am
My mind sitting idle
My heart drained of feeling
Nonexistant my conscience
Won't ever start healing.
Somnolent waking
Loud freakish quiescence
Restless peace, here I'm sitting
being tapped of my essence.
I've pushed myself farther
My soul, I've bore all
Insecure and angst-ridden
Stumbling towards downfall.
My senses are failing
Confusion enslaves me
my pain is restraining
I'm driving me crazy.
Notes:
I wrote this one during school.  It felt like the tower of EVERY SINGLE bottled emotion I had from like, my WHOLE life...had toppled over.  It affected me SO much, that it was keeping me from doing everything but crying, sitting, and walking.  I couldn't talk or bring myself to eat.  I couldn't think, yet I longed to figure things out.  Everything was SO loud, but too quiet...I was SO tired, but I didn't want to sleep.  This is why I intergrated so many oxymorons in this poem, such as "loud quiescence" and "restless peace".  So many things about my life contradict eachother and because over-analyze every little thing, I myself was driving me crazy.
