Another Planet

Post by GrowingTree »

Another Planet

Far away I go,
Invisible I feel.

Words are jumbled up,
And my perfect grammar is in ruins.

My eyes are wide,
As if I am a newborn to this world.

My delicate being is startled by everything,
As my adult body feels insignificant.

Laughter, voices, bells,
Are heard by ears that don't belong to me.

Brain, my brain, it can not, register,
Dissociation is the only word I know.


Hiya All! Here is a little poem describing how dissociation messes with ones mind and sense of self- meaning one can feel like they are somewhere else and their body is disconnected.

I love it. Thanks for sharing your personal feelings. I love poetry and wish people would post here more! ;)
Be not the slave of your own past. Plunge into the sublime seas, dive deep and swim far, so you shall come back with self-respect, with new power, with an advanced experience that shall explain and overlook the old.

-Ralph Waldo Emerson
