Poetry: Struggle in life

by Collin Jones

Created on: June 30, 2008

Where do my thoughts go?
They're not in my head...
And as they slip away
I feel it's safe to say
They won't bother me when I'm dead

But if I have any doubts,
then please remind me why
because my head's in the clouds
and my mouth is very dry.

I can't keep my focus
I hardly know my name
And when you ask me a question,
you have to say it again

Because I can't remember who
and I fail to know when
And there's nothing I can do
To have these back again

So tell me if I forget
And let me know where I am
And if I need to stop and sit
Please just hold my hand

This will all be over in a while
Just let me tread on alone
I'll recover all I've lost
And I'll always know my way home
