Sanity

Wisps of Sanity
Like gossamer filmy wings
Fluttering on my face
Cannot be touched or they will fall to ruin
Fighting to keep up so I can feel
The soothing graze of normalcy
Running, face thrust upward
Pushing against trappings of the truth
Losing the fervid feeling by the moment
Knowing it will quit me soon.
