In the absence of light
I lay in bed waiting
For a full night’s sleep
Haunting, but still evading
Thoughts racing to nowhere
Round and round in my brain
Maybe just a bad dream
Or am I’m slowly going insane?
Sometimes I forget where I’m going
For thinking bout where I’ve been
Moving forward is all relative to
A point of reference of where and when
Decisions for the future
Analysis of the past
The gravity of destiny and chance
My life from an unintended cast
So many people living
The life they were meant to
Happy and carefree
Naturally, they found their groove

A.P.,
Happy…but not so carefree
…at least for me!
These words of mine ⬆️⬆️
may sound like an oxymoron,
but not so much for me.
I’ve learned to live and make the best of whatever comes my way.
I’m my humble opinion,
living in misery and/or feeling sorry for oneself is futile.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful poem.
