My Sanity


Everday I struggle

Combining my self and the others

To produce a girl

Well-mannered and social

 

If I go where none are

And am a being deserted

My sanity will follow me there

Hugging me tight and never going

 

My sanity was lost one day 

I had become so brainwashed

It picked up its home and left

I had to live without it

 

I need my sanity back

My sanity helps me make light

And laugh at thoughts

I share with myself

 

I have been living without 

The sanity I need to live

The sanity that is most 

Important for a girl to survive

 

If I have lost my sanity 

Does this mean I am insane?

What is sanity

How do I know I have lost it?

 

I need my sanity 

close to my heart.
