My Confusion by Sarah BoomBlackness overcome my mind
My thoughts no longer clear
My body is no longer running on blood
My body is running on fear
My life no longer simple
My feelings no longer secure
Thought that I knew everything
And yet you teach me more
All the lies you told
Are now clouding my mind
And again, low and behold
The truth is hard to find
My confusion takes over
It controls all that I am
I wish it could be normal again
But I don't know that it can
And now for one split second
I wish I were like you
Something I've never wanted
To myself I must remain true
My confusion is what controls me
And my feelings follow too
My confusion has finally left me
My confusion was only you 01/18/2004
Author's Note: This was written for a poetry class my senior year of high school. It was how I was feeling at the moment, my life had finally come together after my ex left.

Posted by Steven Kenworthy on 10/22/07 at 08:05 PM men are very confusing animals so i can't knock you for capturing it well and jotting it down as a quality poem. amazing how the unknowing can dominate your thoughts and brain though isn't it...considering especially that afterall it's generally nothing we're confused about in the end. |
