keeping me sane

Massive gray storm clouds,

Thick black rage,

White sheets of acceptance,

Emotions by the page

Cradling dangerous thoughts,

Caging unleashed pain,

Comprehending severed feelings,

Keeping me sane

Judging nothing written,

Hearing nothing said,

Believing no lies of white,

Collecting tears of red

Shoulder to lean on,

Extending stable cane,

Newfound safe-haven,

Keeping me sane

Solo of my sanity,

Beat of my pulse,

Lyric of my thought,

Word never false

Rhythm of my life,

Strumming of my pain,

Silently echoing chimes,

Keeping me sane
