What Have You Done With Me? Please tell me my love, pray what have you done with me? I used and it wasn't so very long ago, be as sane as can be Now my head doesn't, it won't listen to my heart at all And heart won't speak to head, won't even take it's call It's a very confusing situation to say the least i feel as if I'm a novice skier flying down the piste Where Oh where is my common sense now, where has it gone to? It's roaming around wondering if there's something it can do It's lost and looking for some kind of homely shelter I can't say I blame it really it didn't like this helter-skelter I'm as befuddeled as any old dear who's had a drop too much And it gets far far worse when we're close enough to touch My very worthy self-sufficiency isn't with me anymore It's gone and walked on me, just went and it didn't shut the door It's a very strange sensation being all at sixes and sevens I'm all over the shop in a right two and eight. Oh good heavens I'm as amazed as if I've been put in a very deep trance Sorry my love, please stand back, I don't know this dance My mind that tool of which I've always been so very proud It's up and left town, it mumbled something about this crowd I just can't understand why all my senses have abandoned me I've always treated them all as if they were close family I'm wandering confused, like I was once lost in a maze And I know it's all your fault, and this rather odd craze Mushy Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Ron K, I could cope with the confusion, it's the feeling slightly insane that I find so hard to live with. Although I wouldn't want to be totally sane either. He's worth it, he's definitely worth it. Glad you enjoyed this. Take care  Kit, it is a delighful predictament, and I wouldn't change it at all. Still this headlong rush down a spiral definitely makes my head spin. I'm pleased it brought a smile  Marcy, I always enjoy seeing your name on a post, I'd love to read your poem, what was it called. If you could E me with it I'd appreciate it. I'm happy it brought a smile to you anyway, this was one of my fun poems, I quite like doing these. Probably because I've got a weird sense of humour.  Serenity, Oh I'm so glad for you, it's wonderful but so strange. It's this feeling of being out of control, and slightly unhinged, delicious, but very odd. And I used to be such a quiet thing to. (Actually that's not true, I've always been 'exuberant' just ask the sisters. On second thoughts don't, they all lie through their teeth and will blacken my name at the drop of a hat!) Take care Mushy Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
