Look Beyond My Mind Poem by Nitya Kannan

LOOK BEYOND MY MIND..............

Life created you
And life created me too

Happy days were made
As we jumped and played
Our school and friends
With curves and bends
Life was laughter and such fun
Dreams to be a great some one

Then there was this bolt from blue
Shook me, you and everyone I knew
A thousand pins searing hurting
I screamed but couldn't hear my shouting
I ran around in circles fearing
Nothing made sense thinking

I stayed in and out while gazing
At white floors, walls and tiles shining
You moved on telling me
I would be fine just let it be

As I gobbled and guzzled their bitter pills
The abyss pulled me ready for the kill
Nothing would be the same anymore
No school or friends like before
You moved on and sometimes you came
I cried inside when you called my name

There's no one to reach where I have gone
This road is a one way full of thorns
My eyes looking but hardly seeing
Ears hearing but never listening
I have come to a vacant space
I smile what a funny place

Living my battles fighting my mind
While you moved on....well....never mind.
