If sometimes I cannot complete a sentence
it doesn’t mean I won’t understand
if you are hurting
if your state of mind isn’t feeling wise,
instead driven down by whatever the wave
of a moment,
a passing fancy,
a time when all of our lives
become wrapped into that one moment,
all others depart and we are left in a sort of dream
trying desperately to define whatever it means.
