Senseless Madness Poem by Kelvin Rush

Senseless meaningless emptiness life
Spare me save me from all this strife
I'm on this journey and I don't have a clue
I'm so confused I don't know what to do

I get these feelings from who knows where
Impulsive intrusive utter despair
A countless flow of negative talk
A deathly insight a solitary walk

My head it seems is about to explode
I'm soon to pass end of the road
My story dies without concern
Another life to crash and burn

But what of all my memories past
How is it so that nothing lasts
I see no point in love or sin
When all I feel is cold and grim

My mind was clear before I fled
Now I'm blinded the disease has spread
I see no point in turning back
When I can't recover the courage I lack

I took my bible and followed the sun
It was payback time for what I'd done
I walked behind the penniless slave
He led me calmly towards my grave

I stood there peaceful determined to fall
Sheer desperation my final call
I waited a while but no one came near
So I ended my life of torment and fear

The madness has gone relief at last
I have no more interest in future or past
It took me a lifetime to regain my sight
My perilous journey my incredible plight
