As I lie with my thoughts
Slowly swirling about me
A criss-cross here
And a wavy line there
As I try to frame them
Now voice an emotion
An intermittent dot appears
The dreaded full stop
As I try to resist
The despair and anger
I can't help but think
Why the wall
As I again and again resolve
To wallow and waddle
Alone in my muddy, murky paths
What is apparent
Is that
It's a world of opposites
There is no solitude
Even in thoughts
And no company
In a companion
And...
As I lie alone with my thoughts
I wonder who will
Eventually, maybe
Hear me, listen actually
And understand.
