Madness, Not Insignificance (Part 2)

I'm deeper because I know,1

I care and I understand,2

I'm not mad,3

I'm not deranged,4

I’m only in the process of:5

Discovering, and realizing,6

That, which I was,7

That, which really is,8

Forgetting that which was,9

And will not be,10

But lost in a mire,11

I don’t know where and how to start – a new,12

To get rid of the nagging dissatisfaction.13

As thoughts crop up and thrive,14

I feel I differ, yet ordinary,15

So I won’t ostracize myself, 16

I’ll live with you people,17

I’ll make you a home,18

But will have a citadel of my own, 19

In my heart and mind-20

Impregnable and impenetrable,21

I’ll accept nothing and give everything,22

Form the cocoon I’ll watch,23

The changing faces of the world,24

Though you won’t understand,25

Though you won’t comprehend26

I’ll put up,27

I’ll smile,28

I’ll be everyone, yet be myself,29

Fortunately and hopefully someone will come along,30

Be like me, live like me,31

And UNDERSTAND.32

    Understand, I use to wish someone would understand but I don't think anyone will ever be able to do so. I really like this peice and like the other poem it hit me hard. This one is more strair foreword and it is difficult not to get what its about. I still love the words you use in your poems and the way you write them.
