Other Side Of A Mind Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Silent questions flowing into my mind, looking for answers
that will never be found in this life of existence.

A bevy of promises being held in reserve, yet never allowed
a voice in the passage of time.

So many days of loneliness have travelled through life,
leaving me bereft and on a solitary pathway to another
desert where I will meet no one ever again.

Turning away, wanting instead to be a part of another world
on the other side of my mind.

Chanting softly, wanting rhythms to sooth and calm me into a
deepened sleep away from this life completely.
