Frustrations and Forgetfulness Forgetfulness can be mistaken,
For ignorance, Disinterest, It’s like a drain that’s never
full. Forgetfulness is the
darkened shadow, That lingers, Frustrated, All my shining moments
dull. I now lose my way in
places known, Sun-blind, Disconnected, My mouth betraying my
mind, My past, my future all
lost out at sea, Tread water, No direction, Falling years, miles
behind. Forgetfulness is the
thickest cloud, All consuming, Distracting, Uncertain horizons in my
sky, I am not myself most of the
time, Forgetful, Frustrated, Too young, too tired to
question why. Michelle Middleton June 2014 |
