Madness

To me madness is an emotion,

It comes from my heart and brain,

From too much affection,

For what causes me pain.

Just like anger or sadness,

I feel it rising up inside me,

Sometimes it explodes with,

No warning signs I can see.

Like some emotions,

I try to hide,

And ignore the feeling.

But when it explodes,

I may become,

Dangerous.

This is why I fight so hard,

To be a good person.

This is why I am so nice,

To those I know deserve.

This is why I listen to others,

Who might be ignored.

I don't know how to explain it.

Just ask some of my friends,

They will say I am slightly insane,

But in a good way,

A way that makes me who I am.
