How can I think,
when all thoughts
turn to you?
Pre-occupied at work,
I’m fine,
but in those
quiet moments
your image surfaces,
your words resound,
your touch remembered
and I long for you…
Try as I may,
to turn my thoughts
unto subjects new
my heart bends my mind
back to
thoughts of you.
I drown my thoughts
into the TV,
into books and labour,
I tried to drown them
in rum’s sweet nectar
but upon that
they floated
How can I think,
when all thoughts
turn to you?
So now I think…
I think of you.

Your words summed up what I was thinking perfectly! It feels almost impossible to get any work done when someone is on your mind. I love the way you write 🙂
Thank you! it is hard to get work done or anything done when someone takes over your brainwaves completely 🙂 Thank you for the compliment!!
