Rambling about

Rambling about

A Poem by Jake Murphy

Walking through the halls of madness,

The corridors that make up my mind.

Trying to find answers to the sadness,

The correct code or a key of some kind.

 

I search and easily find the door,

Opening it is the trouble not the find.

Hall of doors inside no room for more

The one I seek is always in the forefront of my mind.

 

What cause’s pain in one

Doesn’t in another

Inconsistently alone

To many waves of ups and downs to bother.

 

She fills an empty void, a need

But with many voids to fill

Can she live up to the vast emptiness that spills, a bleed

Wish it was as easy as medicine, like taking a pill.

 

I think of the things that make up me

My needs and wants, likes and dislikes, my plan

Does someone exist that can mirror what I see

Can someone step up and make a stand

 

You fill my heart with love

My mind is still searching for it

You make my heart flutter like wings of a dove

My mind frustrated thrown into a fit.

 

The rhyme of music beats and pounds

To loudly block out the thoughts of rage

The melodic waves and twisted sounds

Blasting through my brain to open the cage

 

I think faster than I can speak

Write slower than I can say it

Mixed thoughts with the vocals meek

Words missed conveys lack of wit

 

My appearance large and scary

My heart soft as butter

Only one I want to marry

Is her and no one but her

 

She looked through the beast

She looked deep and saw the beauty

I love her forever and want to start a nest
