Do I Mind When Things Don'T Add Up

oceanic are my dreams sedated by soporose slumber I drift washed up on a different shore no longer bathed & preserved within icy saline the opposite of the safety of the womb yet preferable to awakening with eyes skinned so that harsh realities sink in I choose to close my eyes shiver in unknown surroundings await the sandman's anaesthesia amnesia battles denial truth battles confabulation I don't want to stand & stare

A lot of emotions here, I can feel the angst in your words.. You have expressed this so raw and so real...

I can get bee's in my bonnet - I set these ones free as I walked to the works car park. It's interesting what words and expressions just transpire with certain emotions
