Nonsense

You go left
and you go right
and you turn around
for a fleeting thought
that passes your mind
and you try to remember
where exactly you are going…
is this new?
or was it something your left behind?
You go left
and you go right
sometimes nonsense rules the mind
and the chaos drives
you to keep going
until you pause and think
why are you moving
does it make sense
why this way and not that
so you go left and you go right
and as you get lost
you somehow find
this piece
that doesn’t rhyme
but holds the truth
you feel inside…
