walls of sanity
Why would you twist my words that way,
So that answers become bad questions.
I cannot explain images of bleak torture,
I'm on the edge of my own suicide.
I can't reveal my horrible fear,
I can't even reveal my pain.
Breaking the rules of this morbid game,
It becomes artificial relief.
I dugged myself with alcohol,
Cut myself with a razor blade.
The burning pain inside me is real,
Please help me to face the truth.
I feel my life going down the drain,
The end of my life drawing near.
No purpose, no goal, no destiny,
A solution just cannot be found.
Climbing the walls of sanity,
I can't take it too much longer.
Why are you pointing and judging me,
How can I end all his misery.

This poem seems to be aimed at the grey crowds, who don't see anything but the superficial side of a person. Yes, they can judge you, but you'll still be a valuable poet in spite of their mean words.

I'm happy that you've continued to step away from rhyming, as this gives you a freer range of expressing yourself. This is strong and evocative, definitely hellacious. I liked the split in the last line from first person to second as it indicated a detachement, potentially different direction for the narrator. My quibble: Stanza 1, line 4, "outside my own suicide" or "edge of my own murder" might be stronger. Other than that, very nice!

You certainly have a way of describing mental hell that's for sure. What a way with words! Very STRONG imagery.
Excellent work indeed.
But I'm so glad I'm not climbing those walls of sanity! :O))
