Micky's Poems

Headspace

I see no mist in my eyes
Yet I see illusions of happy times
As butterflies dance around me,
Blissfully ignoring the holes in the walls.

Maybe someone drugged me,
Put my mind in a spell where
I feel warmth and love all the time
As a way to pity my situation.

I was unaware of such happenings
Until I saw a gap in the smoke.
I saw the broken lights
And heard the screams of the two demons.

Before long I was pulled away
As both demons screamed my dead name
And tore me apart with words,
And I was left to bleed to death.

I lived,
Somehow,
But my mind was left in ruins
With them reaching in and tearing it out.

I remembered why the mist was there;
I remembered why I was placed;
I remembered everything;
And regretted remembering.

I pleaded to be put under again
And the sad man said "it'll take a while."
So for five whole days I was in agony
Until the drugs kicked in.

I breathe the mist to forget;
I'm happy to forget;
I feel warmth to forget;
And I refuse to look out of the gap.
