    So I wrote a poem called "The Brink of Consciousness" about the time at night when it's just your thoughts and you, which I think some people sometimes have a hard time with (I know I have). It's a bunch of haiku stanzas meshed together to make one bigger poem. Feedback is welcome ^_^

    Spoiler

    I ponder alone

    At the brink of consciousness

    Embracing the night

     

    I contemplate life

    Considering sanity

    Rough reality

     

    I think about words

    Words are colors, warm and cool

    Painted on voices

     

    I listen to sound

    Bizarre and mysterious

    Elegant yet coarse

     

    But grim thoughts invade

    Snarling at my weaknesses

    Surrounding my mind

     

    I’m caught off balance

    Distracted by disorder

    Sorrow, gloom and woe

     

    I’m trapped in myself

    Memories echo inside

    It’s overwhelming

     

    I clutch onto hope

    Wrenching myself towards the light

    It’s warm and pleasant

     

    I remember smiles

    My friends laughing together

    Jovial and free

     

    My family’s love 

    Unconditional support 

    Helps heal the broken

     

    I realize the truth

    Life is either joy or gloom

    We decide which one

     

    Tomorrow is hope

    It’s the sun rising once more

    Bringing a new dawn

     

    As my breath rises

    And falls with every puff

    I lie silently

     

    Waiting for the night 

    To take me upon its wings

    Out of consciousness

      That's so cool! I really like how the haikus make the whole thing funnier without needing a rhyming sequence. The message is so inspiring and hopeful! I like it a lot

      Thank you! I really like haikus. Now that I look back at it, the poem is a little cheesy but I think I like it anyway :D
