The Moment of (In)Sanity
There is a moment when everything fades to black.
It's seemingly slow climb into the depths.
I know that's an oxymoron.
People tell me I'm losing my sanity:
That's fine.
I'm not sure I want to be what they consider sane.
I have skipped the absurdity of an ascending descent to darkness,
And have chosen to be judged as I let light kiss my face
And my lips kiss the light.

Hi! My name is Elizabeth Davenport, and I'm a college student who loves all things language, no matter what language it is! I'm probably reading, writing, or dancing in the rain right now. I'm a featured poet, Aura, on diesandnoctis.com (go check them out: they're great!), and use the names E.D., Elie Dav, and Elizabeth Davenport when posting my own.
