Suddenly, you appear and I recognize. What was it that caused me to be so attracted to you? I slowly commenced with my life, but you seemed to linger my path of loneliness.
Where was it that I was going anyway? I was on my way to a world of depression. Yes, I found myself in cranium cavity which was 4 months of inner release training. Sweet! A total failure. The tracks that helped me to discover my true self were erased by some force of state of mind. I could easily write my own directions, but even with my own guidance I could not get there. Any and every point I tried to reach kept getting farther. Reminds me of moments of foolish friends accelerating everytime I got close to them. Then, I began to think. Think? Wow! That's the first. I came from a place I used to live in for a couple decades. Someone early in the year caressed my trail once and I left to smother the location. Could it be that my 'choices' were making decisions also? I do think of things, but not enough to satiate the mind. Finding my way back was interesting. My hearts plan was to issue a decree, but my minds judicial system had some loose strings to take care of. I was literally out of whack. My wrong decisions were always my right. Again, an appearance of a face lurked in my shadows casting an aura of hope. I am and willing to start again and build a solid road. My recent road WAS solid, but the terrain would cause my path to collapse. Just like alot of lost souls of the everyday. A tough exterior and a wussy interior. So when they say, "It's the inside that counts," I say, "They're not trying hard enough."
This says a lot about what you're thinking. I think the best poems or thoughts are the most honest ones. This is one of those. Nice, David.
