My Insane Demons

If the goal was confusion, Then the game was well played out; But if demons didn't exist, I'll write more poems for hopeful answers. 'Cause every dreadful night, When the moon reaches its apex, Many things begin to change; Of which there are footsteps, That creep along and crack the wooden floors; A sense of perhaps intimidation, Walking steadily to awaken my fears. And what I've began to notice: More and more pages with my written poetry are becoming oddly perforated; In a manner that has me on the brink of crazy. Or is my mind just following a path of transmutation, Shown only after the sun sets? Perhaps what I see in pitch black, Is only a war against myself. I now know of two answers: Either I'm going insane and am able to find sanity somewhere when the sun rises, Or perhaps, Something just doesn't like my poetry; At all.

I like your poem...but I have to tell you that after many years of writing that most people don't want to hear anything negative unless you can put it in an interesting provocative manner Keep writing Julie

Thank you! And this is the first poem I've written this way.. It's more of a journal entry actually haha. But I'll definitely take the advice. Thanks :)
