19/Transfeminine/LocationTo Be Determined
I want a device that tells me all the thoughts I forgot in a day. To revisit all the memories I saw or to get back to tasks I said I would get to It would be fun to see the progress of what I thought and how the environment changes that I could even revisit all the great thoughts that made me happy I forget so much This new device might get more screen time than my phone It could save you so much time and energy But maybe its worth it to forget Maybe it clears room for new thoughts to make me happy Maybe the thoughts I think are satisfied with their one life Or maybe my mind is just a pitstop those thoughts make before heading to the next head Id love to remember how I wanted to end this poem though

The thoughts I forget
Have you ever been in a state of unknowing? not just not knowing the answer on a test or the direction to a building but not knowing who you are in a more physical sense I guess Seeing the reflection in a mirror and not fully recognizing the eyes that meet yours Looking at the hands your body came with and feeling like they are a little too big Staring at the legs your parents gave you and thinking they are a little to long But it's more than that The unknowing bleeds into everything When you’re in a group you feel like you’re only observing while you're talking When you’re waiting and lose track of how long its been since you even started waiting When you’re unknowingness becomes so extreme you don't even know if your real anymore But don't stress You didn't know from the start so nothings changed But how could you know…
