Madness masked as normality sat with us <br />for twenty long years, beside the empty <br /> <br />dining room chair, upon the unruffled pillow. <br />Silently it stayed aggressively is displayed its <br /> <br />purpose, knocking us down then holding out <br />its hidden hands. When finnally the walls <br /> <br />were stripped, trophies taken and boxed, <br />pictures lingered before placed into darkness. <br /> <br />Leaving behind a life of love, locking up a life <br />of fragile mood, we sailed down seperate rivers. <br /> <br />It followed us with no footprints madness masked <br />us normality it never leaves when the clock strikes five.<br /><br />Not Long Left<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/madness-masked-as-normality-family-ties/
