My Brain Turned Upside Down and The Smiles Turned Upside Down Poem by A J.

I didn't know
that I would go
and break your heart someday

i didn't know
that I would throw
all our smiles away

I knew what was true
that my heart was with joy
and my mind was shiny
like a bright new opened toy

but after the 'I do'
my brain turned upside down
and the smiles turned upside down
and havoc happened

I didn't know that I would go
and break your heart someday
I didn't fear
that even near
we'd separately stay

my mind was flickering like a candle
and hard to touch like a scolding handle
my mind became unhealthy
...sick...
like a blown out little candlewick
and I need to get it fixed

I told you that I'd love you forever
and never let you down
and hold your hand
even through stormy weather
and turn upside down your frown

but I was the thorn
in your foot
and the dust blown in your eyes
I was buried
with sandy roots
and uprooted by surprise

So I plead
forgive me
so I can go upon my way
for my soul
is confused
and sleepy
and I need some time
to lay
I need some time to lay
