madness


Madness

 

What is madness you ask

If you don’t know madness then don’t look forward to your confrontation

What is madness

Madness is the thing in the night that thumps constantly and never stops

What is madness

Madness is the thing that goes on and on

Until it gets to the point where you are driven to insanity

What is madness

Madness is the noise of the thing you hate most

Going through your head over and over and over again never stopping

Until you reach a stage of total psychopathic delusion

You can’t contain the horrid noises getting louder and louder in your head

never ceasing

What is madness

Madness is something I have come face to face with

And once you meet it never leaves
