Thoughtful Thinking

I don't know what I mean to say.

I sit; confused by no one and nothing. 
Mind wonders unprovoked by the world or even by a neighbor. 

No one hears what I mean to say. Im processing,  im certain of it!

Staring straight ahead. Head slightly tilted in unknowing, but somehow,  
for some strange reason,  

thoughtful? 

Ah thoughtful;

That's it, I quit! Not thinking of course. Thoughts never seem to quit. I haven't been thoughtful all day I say;

Im going to wrest my brain. I can't think of much more right now. My mind is full for some unknown,  but thoughtful reason.
Im convinced of it!
