Emotional Hangover...

Posting a couple of rhymers for my friends David and Jack... ♥

Emotional Hangover

 

Emotions flowing freely

Just like the oceans rush

I try to stop the feelings

Indeed I feel too much…

 

The aftermath of knowledge

I succumb to brain wave blur

I didn't go to college

To learn this language slur…

 

The moonlight comes too early now

My mind won’t let me sleep

I fear the pain not knowing how

Indeed I feel too deep…

 

A lapse perhaps in judgment

For lack of better tense

I try to read between the lines

But none make any sense…

 

My coffee seems to try to tell

In mocha circles I do see

The fairy pictures blown to hell

In waves of mediocrity…

 

Shadows written on the wall

The words slide down the side

They run together with the ink

Of things I’ve tried to hide…

 

And mediocre feelings

Of melancholia thought

Abruptly take me over

I forget the things I've sought…

 

Trembling in my passions

A darker shade of grey

And solitary fashions

Are what I’ll wear today…

 

Beyond the point of no return

Rejuvenation taunts

And simple thoughts of yesterday

Become the gift that haunts
