Hey didn't see this before. This one is really good, especially that you use only two words per line, that's crafty to make that work.
It would make good lyrics, slowly whispered or something, in an ambient type guitar track.

Lost in sanity
B-----------------------G "My thoughts - are crystal clear, --D-----------------A so why am i so lost.
B--D--A--B I know - exactly where i am, but at what cost.
D--A- -B--G Looking back thru time, its always been fine Floating endlessly through thought, like ive lost my Mind
D--A--B--G (Is sanity really what it seems to be.) (maybe someone can take some away from me. ) (i have had the chance, To see what-its-like ) (to see this world slip--ping so far out of sight)
B-----------------------G Take that weight -off my hand. D----------------------A (Maybe then -i can understand. ) Only after -i get burned (Can i truly -be concerned)
D--A--B--G (Is sanity really what it seems to be.) (maybe someone can take some away from me. ) (i have had the chance, To see what-its-like ) (to see this world slip so far out of sight)
D---------------A----------------------B (How much), to trade away some sanity. -------G-- (How much), more fun do others have then me. (How much), will it hold me back. (When those thoughts start bleeding through the cracks)
I flew too close- to the sun tonight. My wings burned up as i fell out of sight. The thoughts oozed out/in?-and held me tight. Who am i- to grab for such light What am i- but just a blight Where am i- but nowhere in sight
Falling thru clouds I Make no more sound Cold and alone Only thoughts of whats known
But before i hit the ground I flew up to the moon Cause im livin In a world that has u in tune With me. With me
When you are near me It makes me feel so good Cause i know that i am understood By you. By you. And i want this to forever con Tinue. With you ((((())lammee)))$;))))
Im no longer sure whats left, right or wrong. Maybe ive been ins-ane all along. " I worked hard and it took so long. Now to look back and to see whats wrong
Of all the con-trol that i think i hold. Never before was the thought so bold. There is a price to get me sold The idea is forever old
((((Out loud it not too lame)))?????

I'm going to put this here even if I shouldn't. This poem whilst not written by Gene changed my life and continues to be a source of comfort.
Hold your breath Make a wish Count to three [Sung] Come with me And you'll be In a world of Pure imagination Take a look And you'll see Into your imagination We'll begin With a spin Traveling in The world of my creation What we'll see Will defy Explanation If you want to view paradise Simply look around and view it Anything you want to, do it Wanta change the world? There's nothing To it There is no Life I know To compare with Pure imagination Living there You'll be free If you truly wish to be If you want to view paradise Simply look around and view it Anything you want to, do it Wanta change the world? There's nothing To it There is no Life I know To compare with Pure imagination Living there You'll be free If you truly Wish to be

Physical delirium setting in. Youthful exuberance long term sin. The days grow ever shorter. Life slows an experience halter.
Doomed vessels, this time round. Always higher, launched with no thought of ground. Flitting through the shadowed. Forever suddenly hallowed.
The sooner we realise its a one way trip. The tighter too now we seem to grip. Whilst the body is but a thing. Without it nothingness would be king.

Now we know its an misuse. Why do we take the abuse. We grant the power to oppress. Placing OURSELVES under duress.
Has Its always been the same. Playing this cruel and vindictive game. Has it just come In different forms. Maybe covert was before the norm.
It feels like I am punching the air. Understanding why the wise don't care. The draw towards apathy is strong. Yet so is knowing right is wrong.
The futility of fixed interactions. The betrayal of ultimate inactions. Give in and be free. Just one soul the fee.

darkness defined
By burning extra bright You may lighten dark corners for those around you, But you may also burn those same people. Bright light also makes for thick shadows; A nicely defined darkness.
Knowing more about whats known and less about the unknown is not just some illusion. As long as the flame Flickers, the shadows will jump around and when the sun rises they will fade, burned out by a brighter light. It remains until the night comes again, when the dark returns to set the mood for those in the audience with their one sided perspectives of others lives. So i see my own light reflected back at me, but for all the reflections there is only that much more shade to hide in. Still, You can only hide in another's shadow, never your own.
No shadows can bear the brunt of light at point blank range of its own sun. People can be left in the dark on what is meant but you will know. You illuminate yourself as much as is needed and can not hide from yourself what you can hide from others. .

Maker of all which is real, and also that which is not. Life's experimental melting pot. Soothsayer of reverberations leading to nowhere but how. Understanding it all within a lack of now.
Changing a system from within. Impossible the place with nowhere to begin. Seeing the outside from in. Greater than a self imagining.
Unpicking the rainbow is needless. Giving in is actually fearless. Looking for sounds only compounds. Listening to sights only confounds.
We cannot question the answers not yet asked. For acceptance I think only allows brutality masked. Resting in mediocrity I know seems lazy. But believing in the convincing is equally crazy.

Stretching out to capture the many morning rays. Breathing in the renewal created by new days. Scenting the opportunism in a multitude of life. Seeing the colours mingling devoid of strife.
Sipping on the illusions as the slip through my head. Dancing with the fruits from the comfort of bed. Embracing the ether of touchable intangibles. Loving as much of nothingness as is imaginable.
Living in a kaleidoscopic dream. Balancing the thin awareness beam. Experimenting with conscious bends. Stopping only when the circle ends.

my bones fill natural holes, shorn from home inflicting odd channels sky, closing in those minerals shoals roam in their ports, and the space seeps broadcast cosmically humored seeds but out of range of you.

Fingernails cling to moments. Eyes scan for more. Nuns rot in convents. We follow the law.
Thoughts carried us here. Breath fills the tank. Emotions based on fear. Tragedy fills the bank.
Self builds the images. Society the foundation. Inescapable mind cages. Misplaced in situation.
