there is something above my head
but i can't quite figure it out.
a sheet? a blanket? a curtain?
whatever it is, it's making me freak out.
all day long, my mind escapes
i can't keep a thought
here one second, gone the next
i truly am distraught!
i'm forgetting something
but i can't remember what
what's the point of reminders
when my mind seems closed shut?
think, think, what could it be?
oh, yeah! i need food
but there was something else--
something i need to do
maybe this snack will help--
that's it! i needed a second
to gather all my thoughts
and leave this barren island
slowly, i realize what was there
what was covering my mind
it was just a gray cloud of confusion
that i thankfully now leave behind
my mind has been cloudy these past couple of days. can't keep my thoughts in order and having trouble remembering things. yikes. but i think it's slowly passing over my head now-- hopefully
