Insanity

HannahElisabeth


Notice of absence from HannahElisabeth
Taking a long overdue mental health vacation. I will check in when I can.

 

Another sleepless night

 

Means too much time to ponder

 

And though I try my damnedest

 

My mind can’t help but wander

 

They say the definition of insanity

 

Is doing the same thing repeatedly

 

Expecting a different outcome

 

Well, 

 

My mind keeps running back to you

 

Love, 

 

The most exquisite form of madness

    Aww, why your mind keep running back to me?! heehee.
    I wish I would shut up! You probably don't mean me. lol.

    • HannahElisabeth

      Well now it is, thank you for my first giggle of the day (or should I say night since I'm still awake?) lol
      Definitely don't shut up, the silliness is much appreciated 🙂

      You define love so well in this rant against insomnia Hannah - I like the flow of the piece and the space you give to your wording.

        Thank you for such kind words, Fay. And thank you for reading!

            I adore this poem and can really feel what your saying. My childhood friend passed away quite recently (so i see this from a different lens then the one you wrote it in) but it left me quite heartbroken for a long time - still does. often my thoughts go back to him, more often at night....thank you for your beautiful, heartfelt words. they echo in my soul.

              Jay-Lee Jane, I'm so sorry about your loss. This was actually about losing two dear friends of mine, one passed away back in April, and the other I could no longer stay friends with. The one who passed was the epitome of love and kindness and yes, I miss him most especially when I think of the other friend I had to walk away from, usually late at night. My heart goes out to you ❤️
