Insanity Plea

unidentified burns

light me up under my skin

making me delirious

feeding the fear within

Senses become accute

feeling phobic by my four walls

like an angered caged animal

trying to break through with its claws

various eye sets watch over me

squirming in accending pain

commenting on how the sooner is over

the better it will be in the end

I ask shouting in vain

why am I suffering

They answer that is my fate

Which I will soon be discovering

The fever spikes suddenly

agony ruthlessly makes me thrash

I bed and plead in vain

Till it all stops in a flash

I may no longer be in pain

But I must have certainly lost my mind

Now I hear voices telling me that legends

Are real within those of my line
