Description
She's not crazy for shoving her hand down her throatOr putting a blade to her skin
For starving herself
Or committing a sin
She's not crazy for praying
And not believing in God
She's not crazy for playing
In storms with a lightning rod
She's not crazy
For being void of emotions
Nor for trying to drown
In countless oceans
She's not crazy for saying I love you
Or for making a wish on the stars
And she's not crazy for wishing
That her eyes could leave scars
She's not crazy for standing
Like she's better than you
Or refusing a hug
While her lips turn blue
She's not crazy for building
Her wall brick by brick
Or listening to music
With screams and a riff
She's not crazy for writing
Poems galore
Or wondering what
This silly life's for
But she's crazy for looking
At her reflection
And wanting to believe
In a thing called perfection

That's because we're all insane, in one way or another.

Just the impression and illusion of it
Or perhaps we're all insane, and sanity is just a screen we use to cloak our true intetnions
yet what is true?
What is a lie?
who are we
To decide why
To know whos sane
To knows who's mad
Who are we
To make ourselves sad?

personally, i find it relatively hard to believe in insanity since "normal" isn't something most people are perceived to be.
Now everyone's either considered superior or inferior, we've completely lost the people in the middle

Exactly!
Besides, who's wholly sane anyways?
It all depends on perspective
Who looks crazy to us, probably thinks it's us who are a little loopy
Ha, maybe I am a little off, so what? :/

Don't worry, I'm quite off myself

Exactly!
And most people don't fit the definition of normal.
Therefore, being non-classically normal, has become normal.
So it's normal to be abnormal/crazy
Only, if that's the new normal, then it can't be called abnormal anymore
Now that I've confused myself by typing that, I'm sorry if I've confused you as well.

I must ask, is this metaphorical or is more than half of this literal?
I love your poems you have talent. that's about all I can say from here. I'd kinda like to chat with you sometime and get to know you a little better.
If you'd like to chat sometime My name on FB is "Tyrone Danger" There arn't many of us I'm the one with the dark biohazard picture.
"Or listening to music
With screams and a riff"
