IN MY MIND

IN MY MIND

Poems here poems there
Here they are, my thoughts I share..
Words that come and words that go
Write them down for all to know..
Look inside to see what's there
Like them not I do not care..
Glimpse inside for you might find
A hint of you there in my mind..
Coded secrets that I might share
I'll keep it simple I'll keep it fair..
A time a place I've held on to
Once of him and once of you..
Scribbles from a frazzled brain
Was light then dark then pouring rain..
Faces come faces go
Up so high then down so low..
Memories bring the past to life
A child a girl a happy wife..
Seeing things I shouldn't see
Stuck in there the memory..
Pen to paper write it down
Mental block I startĀ  to frown..
Staring at a page so white
Eyes get sore turn off the light..
Crumpled papers on the floor
Done for now I close the door..
Crawl into bed and close my eyes
Haunted visions of sad goodbyes..
Dreamed the dreams I always do
The one with him and the one with you.

This is a VERY clever lyric line Miss Tattersall... beginning with what may appear initially as elementary then morphs into a most compelling glimpse inside the mind of the author herself.....a disappointing romance that left painful memories and is interestingly off set by the rather haunting ~'the one with him the one with you'.....ALL STARS!!...... well done dearĀ poet sister...... and..... WELCOME to COSMO!!......LOVE and ROCKETS!!......T xo ?āœ³āœ“ā˜€?

Thank you!Ā 
This was the first poem I had written in over 15 years. Came to me in about 10 minutes one day while sitting on the couch!Ā 
I find I only write poetry when my mind has too much to think about..Ā

I really enjoyed the way you cleverly changed the intent as the poem went down. Great rhythm too and a similar style to some of my own, maybe that tainted my view lol but I don't think so. I have made it my priority (pun intended...see latest poem...lol) to read every entry this month. I haven't commented on all but am enjoying discovering people like you, that I may otherwise have missed. Thanks.xo

Her King

Brown eyes alight with pure delight,
Bright spirits shining, was quite the sight!
Two hearts...

I don’t know if I’ll ever recover
Spinning in circles like a bag in the wind at the tide pools...
