Sometime in the middle of the night I awoke and felt you inside my head, in the corner of my mind feeling your way around in the darkness as if trying to find a way out of this place in my head where you have been trapped for five years.
I don't remember how you got there, and I don't mean to hold you a prisoner inside my head. It's not as if I have not tried to set you free from that place in my mind because I have done my best to push you out through the years.
Somewhere along the line, I stopped trying because I cannot imagine what it would feel like without you there in the corner of my mind. Somehow I think it would feel cold and empty and alone. And I have become comfortable with you there, in the corner of my mind.
So if you want out, find your way and you will be free, but I know if you do, you will return, because that is where you belong, safely in that corner of my mind made just for you.

(Simple words when I thought about all the years you have been inside my head)

DeleteSkip ar a loss for words......wow
DeleteMaybe a more deserving person will come along and push him out ... and and then take up residence there ...
ReplyDeleteI don't know Rusty, I am at a point in my life where I prefer comfortable over new... but if they find their way out of my mind, then I won't pull them back in, but they will come back on their own :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the way you put those words together (-:
