I often play
little mind games,
because it's such
fun to pretend
that there are things
to be praised or blamed,
with which to snuggle
or contend.
If one should read
the poems I've penned...
In browsing
they might find...
A multi-directional
whirling wind;
An ever changing mind.
But, this is just the
game I play.
My efforts to  "fit in"
I really haven't
much to say.
And so...
I just pretend.

Here and there,
among my many writes,
there are hints
at how I truly feel.
It may seem my moods
take various flights...
But beneath it all...
One thing stays real...
'Though I play at
doubts and terrors...
Beneath faux fears
and frets and fuss...
In truth...  I see no errors
ALL is glorious.

So...I cannot  always
be pretending
that things are
out of whack,
when I see only...
Bliss... unending
and know that
Nothing lacks.
There is...
The way I SEE it is...
and I really do not care
about how others
SAY it is
And I've no way to share
a poem about how...
There is only BLISS
and show you
what I see...
Remove the lines
'tween "that" and "this"
Beyond the "you" and "me"
Such a poem
I cannot write
Such a song
I cannot sing
If I do or if I might
It would not change a thing.
I could point a finger
to a path that
helps with your pursuing
But it would be pretend
and I'd have to laugh...
Knowing nothing needed  "doing".

I could give you solutions...
realistically
I could even offer  PROOF
But  I can only do it
dualistically
Which covers up the TRUTH.

An interesting confession.  Enjoyed, as usual!

Whoops!  I didn't notice Martie chose the same lines I did until I already copied!  I'm not at all into mind games, but I did like this a lot.  With poetry as honest as this, it sounds like you have a lot to say.

So...I cannot  always
be pretending
that things are
out of whack,
when I see only...
Bliss... unending
and know that
Nothing lacks.
