Everything is rushing,
Racing past my eyes.
Onto my mind it's falling,
Drowning me in life.
Ideas, hopes, thoughts and fears,
Caressing touches of unconscious tears.
Every color, every dream, standing bright
In the presence of insanity.

Thanks. I had fun writing this even though it didn't take that long.

Wow, I love this. It's so quick and concise, while being deep and indirect at the same time...if that makes any sense... The immense intense emotion you've fit into so few lines is wonderful, and the image you chose reflects "In the Presence of Insanity" perfectly. I really hope this gets published.
