Okay, peoples. Why are you all so confused about who the poems are about? I shall clear things up:

First Poem-Ryou

Second Poem-Seto

Third Poem-Malik

Fourth Poem-Yami

Fifth Poem-Joey

Happy now? This poem is not really angsty or anything. It's just about how Joey feels about Mai…doesn't seem that angsty to me, but I guess that's up to you readers to decide. Review please. I'd appreciate it. Oh, and I think this was inspired by listening to By Myself too many times. That's where the title of the chapter came from.

I Am Giving Into Mad Thoughts

Irrational thoughts are bringing me down

And I'm going in circles, without making a sound

My soul cries purely to get her attention

Gleaming eyes have gained my affection

Ill is my heart, it's breaking apart

Vexing decisions, I'm back at the start

Inside of me lives anger and madness

Nearing my end, I've discovered new sadness

Greedy I am, wanting to feel her smooth skin

Instead I back far away and bury deep within

Needless arguments distract my wandering eyes

Today will maybe be the day she hears my love-filled cries

Or maybe another simple day, when she least expects

Maybe by then she'll not ignore and I will gain her respect

And perhaps by the time my courage is drawn she will have gone away

Doubts now fill my head, and I hope that she will stay

This madness in my mind just will not leave me alone

Hours I have spent to think of what it'd be like to live on my own

Often I wonder how I would survive without her for a while

Underneath her marred perfection I see a girl longing to smile

Grabbing her to bring her close, I hope she knows I will not hurt

Hoping that the times we talked were all attempts to flirt

Today will have to be the day I tell her how I feel

So if I succeed, and we lead a life I'll hope that it is real

Please review.
