Why Nothing Falls Together

Neville

Why Nothing Falls Together

 

I cannot think of you without

   my seeing her ..

   Then I get the strangest feeling ..

It’s like a union

occurs somewhere between my

memories, perceptions

   and our collective unconscious ..

But nothing ever

   falls together these days does it ..

It just seems

   to keep falling apart, as always ..

So when I do

think back on the times we once

shared, it now all

   seems fragmented and distanced ..

Still, I can’t help but

smile at the tears you then shed,

for one moment

back then, I thought, I might just

   have meant something ..

        That phrase...β€œa union occurs somewhere between my memories, perceptions and our collective unconscious”...is stunning. You blur philosophy and emotion until they fuse. I loved every bit of this, my dear Neville! Well done and a fave, mate! πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

              Fragmented memories recollected in tranquility well captured here - I know, I have them and they aren't so very different beyond minor particular details...Enjoyed, Neville.

                  Cheques no longer valid currency - only gold bullion acceptable... mind you if you wait until my forgetting you could possibly get away with anything.....
