Notes About The Poem

- Dark Brainstorm -

Being strong is his only option
Satisfaction is not always the fulfillment of what you want
when you gets stuck in an unwanted situation
Witch hunting and lynsjing
He loses control and it makes him desperate
The bitterness has taken over, as a development of a toxic virus
Bile from the stomach leaves a bitter taste on the tongue

His defense mechanisms are in constant preparedness
It's about making choices and all choices have consequences
A fear of losing his identity, total paranoia
Thoughts like a spider web in destruction
The water is polluted, rape of our world
Twisted lines of madness ...
nightmares, tears and flashbacks
He does not know the rhythm of the music

Wow...you must know psychology well to be able to write this poem, Sunshine. These lines give us a peek into a disturbed mind. One wonders what brought on these thoughts in his mind. Intriguing piece. Thanks for your visit to my blog, dear. Hugs

Great stream of consciousness. There is one thing I might consider, maybe amend your poem slightly, if you do not mind me saying. You switch from 'one' to 'you' and to 'him'. Is this deliberate? Many kind wishes, Kai
