Inside Out; and Outside In

[Written: 2024-09-09]

The world outside of us is a big and complicated thing;

But even the unknowns are defined, let me begin.

The unknowns are unknown, now they are known;

By exactly how much determined by who minds own.

All things make sense out there if you look hard enough;

But behind these eyes lies the beginning of us.

Each mind so much bigger than the world could ever be;

Just close your eyes, look inside and see.

Endless creativities from our imaginations do pass;

Even when we don’t realise, our thoughts start to last.

They grow into the world and nourish our pasts;

By just remembering them again, can make memory cash.

It’s a strange world out there, but it’s stranger inside;

Just hop in my mind and come along for the ride.

Where demons did chase me, I fought my best fight;

But, I could not defeat that darkest of night.

It’s true I was falling, I nearly did die;

Then angels did save me called human kind.

And now it was all just my imaginative mind;

It was nothing more than a trick of the light.

So, now I shall say goodbye when I really mean hello;

I’ll be here when you need me, if you can remember to bellow.

    I need to read this many times over. It’s a magnificent piece of writing. Your mind is fabulous.. the words just flow effortlessly. I don’t know how you do it but I am a fan.

    Every line is a study in creative thought. Every word is written with so much emotion and sensitivity..

    Bless your, Adam.
