What was I writing again, oh nothing Poems leading nowhere
There is enough pain in poetry for lessons
Others words means I can glimpse the future
Tiredness has taken me over, I'm forgetful
Soothing lullabies are sung to me
I could be rocked gently to sleep
Perhaps I was silly?
Should I align to silly?
If I do, all difficult decisions are taken away
And I'll be able to rest
I am so so tired
I can solve it all
********
What happens when you're still
But feel like bottled screams
When your memory plays tricks
Just disappears the facts
********
I'm fiction
I don't recognise myself
Not through your eyes or mine
So just quietly I
Seek to discover
Incantations seems to create me
People wish me into forms
Place magic words around me
Transfixed they describe the me they created
They can see it, there is no lie
But I don't see it
I don't know who steals souls
As we astrally project
******
Utter something
I urge myself
Have something to say
I should sleep
Existing in the late night
Is bad news
*******
I glimpsed something in a dream
That made me shudder
Knowledge, awakened
The pitch in a song
Written words in my writing
A voice that said "I told you"
It was just moments ago
But it's gone
I'm awake now, all my hair curled
Some kind of fever dream
I'm sure the world stopped spinning
I was separated from
The intake of breath by a glass screen
Being frightened didn't matter
It was knowing there was a cross roads
And I'd hit three points
Memory told me
Now I'm cold
On the outside of the dream
Unsure what nighttime this reality is
Mare, night mare
Tears spring to eyes
My head is bowed so far forward
Contemplation
The curls quiver and shake
As does my breath
I'm distanced from the dream
Or the track
My feet touch the ground
