Procession of emotions…
Steady succession of thoughts, so rapid they are unfathomable…
΅〜 ❀ 〜΅
My mind begs surrender to illusion of peace…
Longing for tranquility of thought creating serenity in my soul…
Momentary glimpses of how the scattered pieces will join together…
One by one a blurry picture of future is forged…
΅〜 ❀ 〜΅
The quest for answers takes me down the path of distraction…
Unexpected knowledge…
New pieces always adding to the potpourri of thought…
Mirage of the new world…
΅〜 ❀ 〜΅
Conflicted confusion invades serenity…
Discovered distraction surrounds me…where does it dwell?
More illusion or just a dream within a dream?
Did I unknowingly discover these new pieces?
Adding to the journey of solution…
΅〜 ❀ 〜΅
I close my eyes and ponder…
Trying to find answers…
They are not forthcoming…
Purposely hidden from me…
Faux reality…
΅〜 ❀ 〜΅
Surreal scenarios leave me aching for illumination…
Conflicted distraction my new companion…
The very lens through which I see myself…
΅〜 ೋღ ❀ ღೋ 〜΅
Tonight…
I am undone…

There’s lots of nuance to this one which could keep my analysis face going for weeks, just the way I like it then! Where to start though…I love the visuals of ‘future is forged’, that had me in mind of a literal forge where you worked upon creating you ever changing thoughts on a myriad of things past, present and future, all connected and moulded together.
I seemed to get an Arthurian vibe as well, bear with me I have evidence to support my claim, the words ‘quest’, ‘illumination’ and ‘serenity in my soul’ all remind me of the Round Table’s quest for the Holy Grail, this of course being your personal one. Layers upon layers, that’s what you always have in your words, many subtle illusions that are easy to miss. I love that, you demand to be reread ad infinitum.
Kudos for using the criminally rare word potpourri as well, I never thought I would see that word in so fascinating a context…you have a simple way of letting us readers understand you and your complex thoughts and ways. Class act, is a way I haven’t used to sum your lyrical words for a while.
You cut and thrust (insert possible reference to jousting here, another favourite from Le Morte D’ Arthur) through your feelings to write something cogent and intriguing. If this is you undone then your words when ‘done up’ will be colossally exciting. xxxxx

Hehe !! Being a mere innocent male what does it mean when a woman says, *Oh sir, I am undone” ? Is it a) by magic her breast size increases ten fold and her blouse buttons pop OR b) A passing fireman has taken advantage of her OR c) she has a screw loose. I suspect c) though I could be wrong 😉

Oh you know me…with my propensity to bring back some of the manners and phrases from times gone like “my good sir” and such like….so to be “undone” was meant to express a state of confusion which coincidently is the state I live in!
