A simple poem that makes reference to madness


Come and fight with me
I am mad

Come and stand
Be my punching bag
I am mad

Hear my words of wrath
Listen to my hate
I am mad

Sit still, do not move
Look at me
I am mad

Count my words
Count my strikes
Count every pang
Every tear I cause

My madness promises
Pain and tears to all

My madness cuts and stabs
You who dare walk beside me
To walk the path of my footsteps
I dare you to
For I am mad
