The Me I'll Never Know

Lifepoems

Last night as I lay awake,I surrendered to myself
Inviting all that hurts me so,pulling remnants from the shelf
Pieces of my yesterdays,memories locked away inside
A gathering of deepest thoughts and many tears I've cried
Not conjured for self pity,or to play with this messed up mind
But just because I'm dealing with too much at this one time
I needed to sort and sift my emotions,define the love and lust
Take a trip back to reality and bank some of my trust
It was like a jigsaw puzzle,scattered across the floor
What started as a 500 piece,now had grown to so much more
But unlike a store bought puzzle,there was no picture to guide my way
And I knew that this one puzzle, would not be fun to play
Still I didn't drag my demons, up from their black abyss
Just to shed more wasted tears and on happier times,reminisce
I had called them here for a reason,to finally cleanse my heart
In hope to find some discipline,even if it tore me apart
The dark of night surrounded me,still I heard the screams
Of all the hope inside me,trapped in boundless dreams
I heard the quiet whispers,of my hearts eternal search for love
And shushed it with a soft 'not now',I've not time enough
Love must be the furthest from my thoughts at this time
As love will only blur the thoughts,and complicate the mind
Restling with the emotions,I tossed and turned for hours
Wishing hard for pouring rain,or at least a summer shower
I wasn't getting anywhere,the confusion just too much
So many mixed emotions,coming at me in full rush
I turned onto my stomach,buried my face into my hands
And realised that this is me,and... 'me' I'll never understand

I've given up trying to understand myself or anyone else for that matter. He who tries to make sense out of life is destined to die in a state of confusion.
This has always been one of my favorites of your.

This is the first poem I have read in forever - I gave birth to a new baby girl on the 9th so I haven't been onsite much. I love your work and am so glad I read this one. I feel like this about myself so often! And like you I have come to understand that I will never understand life's heartaches or even it's graciousness for that matter because I have never come to know the real "me". Maybe we aren't really supposed to, as little sense as that makes. Great write! Thanks for sharing!
