My sense of sanity
February 7, 2022
Oh,
How safely guarded do I feel with this implacable anguish?
Since when,
Is pain an ease not an encumbrance?
As I venture to adore my abhorrence of pain,
Any ephemeral spark of effervescence is an intrusion
Thus,
Violently do I plead
To not ever rob me of this exuberant lunacy
For I dread what is subsisting in the real life
Soundness,
Dare not endeavour to obtrude on this insanity
For only reality could poison me
Hope,
Dare not endeavour to infiltrate into my soul
For only I could be calm with these penetrating whispers intoxicating my mind
Sanity,
Dare not endeavour to wake me up
For i am engulfed in euphoric state of mania

I wrote this piece during summer 2021 when I was overwhelmed with everything and felt like everything was going out of control. I overthink a lot so writing poem is my outlet whenever I am unable to keep my thoughts under control. Hope you guys like it !
