split decision

Post by saw » February 26th, 2015, 11:22 am

I'm glad you returned
my dear friend,
as you know very well
we share the same space...
a skull with plenty of room, why
do you sometimes just up and leave
when I'm preoccupied
with other stupid shit...
I don't even notice
you've slipped out
the cranium door

I awaken one morning
with angst I can't put a finger on,
or put a single neuron in its proper place,
so I pace like any animal
in captivity would, back and forth
forth and back, A to B
B to A, even to C ( see ) sometimes
and then as swiftly as you left it seems,
you return to my head.....I can't tell you
how much I missed you, YOU
are the only one that understands me
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

"Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most." ;) ... I don't remember who said that. It could have been me, but I think it was somebody else.

I don't know exactly what you're referring to in this poem but it was definitely cool to read. Something that shares the space in your brain. Hmmm... I love a good mystery poem.

Some days, all the poems are mysteries to me. I don't understand any of them. :D So, don't worry,it's not your poem, it's just me.
