Confused Mind By Belle

Confused Mind

By Belle

Our carefree summer perfect love

Lies locked in frozen memories

Of feel good times and abrupt end

That bring me to this poem.

I’m writing ‘cause I need some help

My mind is so confused

I know it was no single thing from me

That caused your flight

But was it your toy with love

Which spent when pressed to light?

And,

Do I wish for you the best

As I make my curtain bow?

And

As for me—

(Or do you care?)

Do now I say farewell?

And

I truly pray your answer here

Will my goodbye make me exhale?

There’s just one thing that is perfectly clear

And that one thing is this

A mind

    IS

a terrible thing to confuse.

From The Seasons of Love
