Am I Really Sane

You ask me what I think, and before I answer, you walk away, tell me something, do you care anyway? You tell me we need to talk, and before I have a chance, you get ready to go out, asking me to iron your pants. If someone else looks my way, or stops to say hello, you get all mad at me, and a fit you begin to throw. I'm trying hard to figure this out, my brain is really numb, you act like you care, then say I'm rally dumb. All I want is peace, and quiet, a place of solitude, not this circus life, do you hear me dude? I sit,and write my songs, something I really enjoy, then you get mad again, as if I took your favorite toy. My life is a cobweb, so sticky, and a mess, and everytime I try, and change it, I fail another test. On, and on, an endless war, nothing I stand to gain, I ask myself, am I really sane. This is something I made up, not serious...

I hope you're not fully sane. Normal people lead mundane and boring lives. Always stay a little crazy, it makes life so enjoyable. Vince

This has has a hint of truth to it. A relationship has many sides of understanding one another. God Bless Phyl

Another master piece by Christy as I applaud you for a job well done. I often ponder that question myself and have yet to come up with a sound answer. You be just fine girl. Excellent poem once again... MPK

Well, that would make me insane too. Relationships are so tough, especially when one is, shall we say, not 'getting it'. Glad this is made up. Great poetry as always. Love, Shar

Real or not, this reads with truth. I say you're sane, because you do ask, you question. I believe those that question or have desire are those who succeed at which they try, though they may not know it. You express yourself with clarity and a smooth flow to the words. My best to you. Michael

Glad you made it up, although I guess a few women, can relate to it, best wishes and thank you for your comments Carl.

You write of a troubled relationship and the meaning is clear. But why blame yourself? You are quite sane in wanting "peace and quiet" - something we all need. You will break out of your "cobwebs". My prescription - write more poetry.
