one kiss away from going insane

one kiss away from going insane

A Poem by Beren

In the hospital room
I'm calling out your name
As if you were my medicine

The beginning of that movie
a failed writer living alone
and look for a new meaning

I don't understand why I'm so drawn to you
Why you're running through my veins
And worst of all
I thought you didn't want me anymore

I can't sleep
I look at the dim light and think about where you are
I'm looking for a way to make you kiss my chapped lips

Maybe I'm too dramatic but
When I run through every scenario in my mind
that I run to you
I realize there's nothing keeping me here

No dream
No hope
No effort

I pray
And I can't suppress the voice inside me that wants you
I hope I'm not going insane

letting yourself on paper and writing to your heart and mind's content is the best service you can do to yourself. the voice is strong, fierce and honest. the words are your warriors, keep writing, thanks for sharing, B.

This is a great write and conjures up images for me..:)

It screams out the addiction to another for me...waiting for that someone to come along and take away the pain of being in the "hospital"....
I like the final 3 lines......

"I pray...I hope I'm not going insane..."
