I dream of things
Which will come true,
If only I plan
To work them through,

I set up rules
And decide to follow,
Society’s routine,
Is such a damn hollow,

I create ideas
In thought of  pursuit,
Leaving them half done,
Feeling my life’s through,

I write this rhymes
To waste some time,
While not following,
The routine chime,

I made up this place,
In which I lay rest,
Until the day ends,
Till the next one begins.

In the shade of the night,
I look at my goals
Seeing if they are real,
Or only empty bowls.

Once again I descend,
To the path that seems right,
Where I might end up,
I might know tonight,

I feel lost at times,
When everything seems right,
The signals are clear,
But my mind doesn’t bite,

I think quite in excess ,
Causing a bit of ruckus,
Leaving myself to blame,
Painting with the same brush.


When you look at me,
Remember I see two,
One is myself
And the other is you.

Facing ourselves is one of the hardest things we can do!  It is hard and confusing but we usually get there in the end..
Love the closing a question within a question..

I thank you for the compliments and your responses. I liked the ending myself too.
