Description
What happens when a poet loses their words,and gains too many thoughts?
When a person feels nothing at all,
and everything at once?
When the world flips and turns upside-down,
But was really right-side up all along?
What happens when you know absolutely nothing,
and learn everything by dawn?
You scream
You lie
You laugh
You cry
You dare
You deny
There's too many things to try.
What happens when you're overwhelmed,
and reality becomes real?
You think.
You learn.
You feel.
That's when life finally becomes real.

"Life is cruel and unforgiving, but every now and then there's a period of exquisite euphoria, that makes all the rest worth while. Live, Laugh, Love, and try to avoid the all the crap."
~ another sage quote brought to you by me ~
A good piece of introspection, though as a piece of blank verse it doesn't appeal to me, as the rhythm lacks stability. Though the imagery is pretty good.
