Everyone is slowly losing their sanity. A short poem from the perspective of a broken man.
Some say tragedy triggers insanity
But what of the exception?
My home was never set to flame
My wife had not the chance to leave
Still I only cry in rain
Musn't let them see my pain
Strung up on wood
Christ's debt to pay
Chains and shackles bind my soul
Father, why hath thou forsaken me?
And it all builds up
When they say you're crazy
Weaknesses protected
Nothing in life to shame
And yet I begin to see
Yes, insanity reigns
