The cottage
the place where I go desperately and anxiously
The place where I walk oddly and shoeless
Because my toes feel uncomfortable
when they feel the cold floor
The place where I violently and abruptly release my insanity, my craziness,my twisted unknown artistry
Where my hair raises up
because of the goosebumps
Because of my frosty,twisted and dark imagination
It's the place where I wake up at 2 am to write what the sleepy morning whispers me
This place is mine
This place is my precious
It's my well preserved iron trunk

One word. Great
Please check out my poem "Ghosts of the Past" and rate/comment? Would really appreciate it!
Very nice (: As posted below, I like the sort of mystery to it. "My twisted unknown artistry" is probably my favorite line.
However at "This place is my precious" I got a sudden vision of Gollum from Lord of the Rings XD So that sort of interupted my enjoyment of the poem temporarily. But only slightly -- intentional or not I enjoyed the reference XD
In all, well done. However, I did feel a slight lacking. It moves slowly at the beginning, entire stanzas given to description and then an abruptness. Sometimes abruptness works, but for me it didn't in this case.
So -- it's good and has potential to be even better
