~the delusional pages~
ink out your delusions
while a midnight sun
hangs heavy and pregnant
give birth to madness
rattle the bones
of the ancient spirits
dance naked and unafraid
the dark your shade
as you come unbound
secret sin rises
reveals the moon in your eyes
your rosy flesh
denies the pale truth
hidden lines blur
within the mirage
seen on the horizon
true images remain unclear
instinct holds the cards of fate
they're dealt in your favor
retrace your steps
find a place of solace
your heart knows the way
far from the cackling woman
with skin like snow and bloodied lips
that shouts obscenities at you
makes your skin crawl
hideaway in the quiet places
music and poetry your salvation
ink out your delusions
while a midnight sun
hangs heavy and pregnant
give birth to sanity

Your delusions are a delight Lady Crim. A world of fantasy augments hard core reality, and our sanity is hopefully preserved. And gotta let the id out to play at times. Loved this!

This is all things fantastic!
"As you come unbound, secret sin rises, reveals the moon in your eyes"
"Hide yourself away, in the quiet places, music and poetry your salvation"
Excellent work as usual.

Yes, those distractions, namely poetry & music can keep out many unwanted thoughts or take you someplace else you would much rather be if you want it that hard. Great two stanza intro, very energetic, setting up the rest of the piece nicely.

My Beautiful Brenda, there have been many nights when certain things aren't available for whatever reason, when music and poetry become my salvation...you summed this up wonderfully...sadly, I wish my many of my repressed thoughts would reach a point where I would allow myself to ink them...unreserved...maybe one day, they will be free...
I love you madly, deeply...
With all my love - Taryn xoxo

My lovely Angel, the magic you dipped your quill into here is very potent! As I'm reading my eyes widen a bit more with each stanza. The ways in which we keep the howling at bay...Brava, lovely one! So much love...

Thoroughly enjoyed

this is really strong and stirred memories of my three weeks with Post-op delirium - in and out of sanity with no warning - scary :-(
