What's On My Mind?
Alissa Thomson Aug 2012
I'm not exactly sure what's on my mind
       Many random thoughts
                     Whisper their way across
            Memories that are
                         Deep and dear to me
                    Like sunshine setting on
                               Horizons so big the water
Is too wide to
See the edge of it.

I'm not exactly sure what's on my mind
       Small bits of thought
                        Flutter across the narrow archway of
                 My mind with gates open
                           Wide enough to see children
                     Playing and birds with wings so
                               Vibrant in color that you almost
Think that they are
What happiness really is

I'm not really sure what's on my mind
       Fire dancing across
                 Whispering meadows without
           Burning or leaving a single scar
                     Which hurt and cause
               Pain that no longer exists and will
                           Never return again in my
Doubtful mind that has
Healed and won’t get hurt

I'm not really sure what's on my mind
       Red balloons with no shape
                 Fly across my psyche then crouch like a
           Tiger ready to pounce on a
                      Specific thought, just to get a grasp of it
               Before it leaps away like others that
                           Jump out of my reach
Before I can catch it and
Keep it forever

But as always,
I'm not really sure what is on my mind
