PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Every time complication comes

I do what I always do and run

Can't take the stress and emotions it brings

It is a rollarcoaster ride that is not fun,

but instead stings

Happiness rolls around and lasts for a while

I feel good and share real smiles

but then it all feels too good to be true

and I get down and a dark shade of blue

Sadness fills my heart and soul

I feel everything deeper and feel the need to be in control

and there is only one way to feel any relief

Even though it only makes things worse and the feeling is only brief

Maybe those smiles were just part of a charade

Raining down and drowning out the parade

Temporary insanity I plead in this case

Remembering everyday and every embrace

Walk out on the beach and spread out my ashes

Who was foolish enough to hand me the matches

Maybe they are the ones who need to plead temporary insanity

To let me light the flame and set my soul free
