The mind shutters

Thoughts fragmented into bits of phrases...
Flashbacks and glimpses of lost ages...
To many moments tie into to many pages...,
Memories confined, lost in my mind... 
I look, but I'm weary of what I'll find...
Flips of clips of movies I thought I saw,
Conversation I'm not sure I heard at all...
Memories that still flutter as they fall?
Blue clouds shroud what I think is true...
I don't know if I did what I said I would do?? 
Looming in my mind, forcing random emotions,
Splicing good and bad without any notions...
Reeking havoc in a head full commotion!
Time is a companion too what she's scarred,
Locked feelings in boxes all keyed and barred.
Glass emotions seem to be breaking in my head...
Barriers of pain built for what they dread,
Slivers of feelings staining what they imbed!
But, I'm not alone here... where I exist...
They're demons that scurry... amongst... the mist.........

you know how to construct a scene in the reader's head. your words bring sight, touch, and sound...very beautiful even when it's dark

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
