My mind

My mind is falli ng

On the floor

Slowly but surely

Every piece of it

Bit by bit is falling

On the floor

It started slowly

But then

It gained speed

I tried to stop it

I tried to catch it

But, in the end

I was too late

So, I stand

Where I am

My hands clasped

Behind my back

My chin pointed

Toward my feet

My eyes looking

Down

At my mind

Sitting awkward

On the floor

I would pick it up

I would put it back

But, in this confusion

I can't remember how

So, I stand

Where I am

My chin pointed

Toward my feet

My eyes looking

Down

At my mind

Resting quietly

On the floor
