Always Insane

i am alone, 
it is quiet and isolated 
i like it like this, 
i can think, 
true, i may be insane, 
who isn't? 
insanity goes a long way 
until you share yourself
with the one you love 
day after day, 
for now, bask in the isolation, 
stretch your muscles in the quiet, 
alone for now, isolated, 
but not in the shadows,
surrounded by friends,
 but ignored, 
always ignored,
 feeling torn, 
such feelings are 
so mundane, 
nothing compares to 
always feeling insane.

I like the essence of this poem and the flow of the message. Silence is golden to many. It's devastating to some. I just love it. Great job! Joseph
