Poem: Blank...

Is it too bad to be blank?

I don't think so…..

Coz once in a while, the chaos of thoughts gets too much,

Once in while, its good to do nothing as such…

So, I just sit and stare,

I read-but absorb nothing,

I hear, but do not listen,

I see, but do not register

Thoughts swarm, but I don't bother…

I am Blank!

Blank to sight,

Blank to sounds,

In a bottomless pit, I drown

Its a peaceful state,

Before the world brings me back to my senses,

Let me stay in this remote abyss.

Its not the world that a fear,

Its not loneliness that I crave,

A moment of no thinking is all I asked for

A moment of blankness is what I found

The doorbell rings, I break out of my reverie,

And just like that, its back to the grind for me….

I hear, but do not listen,

I see, but do not register"

Simple n so true.

Speechless is the word for your Poem. I can again completely resemble my Life, or my day to it. Though the callibre language you had used is Very simple but its very Touchy. Absorbing and soothing. Regards.

Such a nice poem.

Loved this part particularly;

"I read-but absorb nothing,

I hear, but do not listen,

I see, but do not register"

Simple n so true.

I don't think so...

Once in a while even being blank is thought provoking...

It sometimes perpetuates the chaos of thoughts...
