Sometimes I feel the need to sink Letting the currents carry me forth To immerse myself in thoughtful drink Further from my solid anchored shore Hoping this time is not too late For time tends to contaminate One of these journeys I will not return Led too deep and too far to see My faithful island, my only concern Lost within my lost reason to be I watch as these thoughts duplicate To fight them all and to obliterate The colors fade to nothing at all And silence becomes a physical pain The fog rolls in, becoming a wall Held together by thoughts it contains Within, a process that does not deviate Only grows, fed when I concentrate Circumstances, being what they may be Still looking for a million lost things Seeking for the missing pieces of me No matter the finality that finding brings In the meantime I’ll defer to fate And take pleasure as I separate |

Seeking for the missing pieces of me No matter the finality that finding brings There's sadness in this voyage of self-discovery... but also great strength to face whatever comes. This is most excellent, my friend!! |

hmmm...the format you use reminds me of Sy, the emotion is different though.. and the use of all the names tells me you are probably not new here.. I enjoyed your writing very much. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |
