Poem I wrote about the thoughts that come and go in my mind. |
Sitting in a pool of thoughts I begin to wonder Soaking in memories of days yet to plunder I begin to absorb the past as my future Forward of the now and slightly south of yesterday The future of things become filled with words I say The space is filled with unwanted thoughts of the day The memories are lost and shall not retrieve The now takes hold with lightning speed Future holds something maybe a key It all pours out into an empty need Speaking on yesterday now and forever And of tomorrow today probably not ever It drops from my mind drip by drip Like falling rain in time I can’t get a grip Full with nothing to share or give without waste Unfelt of something unknown to this place Unknown to someone who has seen only I Known to no one until someday I die It is only my mind that you can’t see My mind is nothing because it is only me Something in my mind gives an image to you All for nothing and nothing to do One for something to see as I say My thoughts keep going day after day Starting and stopping who is to say All for nothing until someday When it will all end, deleted dismay |
