My Mind Is A Universe

My Mind Is A Universe

She said ‘5 minutes, I’d take forever’

Well you don’t know me

But if you did, you would see a Universe in my head

There shards of colour live, a kaleidoscope twisting

Constant whirring, mixing memories as waves tumble into one another

All is lost and forgotten

Yet I hold on tight, keep my brain intact

Whilst all around me falls apart

Smells remind me of a time that never existed

Nostalgia for emptiness

Yet somehow you have always lived in my head

A small section that you own

Be wary, you are entering a Universe

Nothing is true or false

Nothing is fact or fiction

Nothing is black or white

I am a room of unfolding treasures

You are the bees knees

So mystical like a sonnet

Or the Northern Lights

Blurred lines are smeared with eye shadow

Covering the endless roads

Each thread of a needle comes undone

Yet I am here for you

Memory lives here, somewhere

I cannot find it

I keep calling your name

Only now do you hear me
