The Chronicles of Seeing the Unseen -Part 2-

People seem not to care They just stop and stare Bullying everywhere... No one sees, but Him - beware... Be wary... All around me is scary They will never see Nor will they feel But, God knows how I feel He has seen the tears I shed... It's all in my head It's all in my head It's all in my head Memories...flood...into...my...mind...voices so kind... Let me unwind time for a time... Shelter I couldn't find...loneliness is my only friend... Let the clocks chime, for it's not a chime To live, being left behind, watching the time unwind... Meeting my end in beginnings... Everyone is doing their share Of endless, selfish winnings... It's not fair...share some light of delight If you dare... (this is an unfinished poem...will be finished by 3/19/16 - I got it all written down, so be patient please...:) Thank you, readers)

I've edited in my notes on Bedtime - A Pantoum, the rules on how to write the form. You can also check Eve Roper's contest if you want a more thorough explanation. Cheers.

Even more contemplative this time around. I liked seeing this line yet again, "Let me unwind time for a time" ... it's almost a paradox, reminiscing while still moving forward in time. "Meeting my end in beginnings" A meaningful start (if all goes well) should lead to a meaningful end. I like how your poem makes me reflect ... keep it coming.

So, it's like a conundrum or an oxymoron perhaps? Beats me that I'm a natural poet (X. I take your comments into deep consideration and I can tell you are a zealous poet with works of gold and silver.

Thank you, Tim! Exactly. You said it alright. And, yes, I have this poem tucked away somewhere...haha but I haven't got to it, so I think this series is over... until I can find further inspiration for it. But, for now, I am going to squander my time at home and relax with my dog, Lexer :)
