#badmemory - Hello Poetry

Life is pointless Like an ever revolving top It'll take it's spin before falling over still It laughs in your face Like a bad memory That resounds in your nightmares People make it worse Even though they see your troubles They make thing complicated by adding their drama So why? Why must we go on? In this never-ending carousel? Like a haunted carnival Life is full of terror And the rides will never end Until you give in And leave it forever

Life is pointless Like an ever revolving top It'll take it's spin before falling over still It laughs in your face Like a bad memory That resounds in your nightmares People make it worse Even though they see your troubles They make thing complicated by adding their drama So why?

How naïve was I— thinking I could find the way by asking some stranger. No, I couldn't find the way— the stranger did tell me but my mind forgot it. Turn left, go straight, take the northern path... My brain was a confusing and entangled mess of lefts and rights, straights and turns. And just when they said "Have you got it?", I nodded—I had got it— but the instructions slipped out of my mind and walked away— they left me behind, alone and stray.
