Deja Vu Repeat Locked in time renew a familiar view hitting replay of the same old rhyme Not a dream as many might say it seems, or illusion and delusion or sinister scheme Stopped in motion, fraction from a vision, not locked out similar to stuck in, lost in a ruse easy to confuse often crosses a fine mental center line Full range from stored images, reflections of recollections left spinning in a round room made of mirrors, each a different theme Grand or simple thoughts trapped abruptly unwrapped, even seen as sinister by a minister that wants us to repent, demons or angels, neither is divine Old time feeling came again just to leave me reeling, Comes and goes how or when nobody knows, future thoughts cannot be foreseen With a wink in a blink images stepping forward never a warning, moment of mayhem to fast to be a coward, another journey stuck in time Mental pictures like flashcards with similar frames, same game on repeat with a new theme Not a clue of when it might end, like an email stuck on send, never planned or something grand, thoughts brought forward from the back of our mind Fast or painfully slow, icy cold or warm glow, similar paths along a straight row, high fall from a white wall, patterns and colors flash over then repeat, another view from a familiar scene This incident another increment, fraction segmented placed on hold, splice of a memory, stuck on forward then reverse, just time that we did not rehearse Explanations seem futile unless they have truly done this before, splice of a memory, stuck on forward then reverse, just time that we did not rehearse, Similar segment or unknown fragment, another glimpse we survive Deja Vu is coming through will see it all again, when I have seen it all before why begin a familiar spin with an unknown end, take it all in as temporary rental on mental hygiene R.C.

Might help finding a definition of deja vu,not as common as the term, is a constant part of my own mind but took most of my life to know not everyone did this, it varies widely so even harder to explain or understand,also the term "jamais vu" which I didn't include because I see both as one feeling, I don't try to over analyze this but can leave some people feeling like they have some mental condition, Thanks for reading ,appreciate your comments.
