Diamonds

Finding MeaningPoetry

And when I sat down
to write this time
My thoughts were
really not even mine
My mind had been captured
My heart had been trapped
I shouted for rescue
But there was no one there
My mind refused to listen
My heart refused to smile
I was in a different world
Which was not even mine
I wandered there alone
Hearing through the silence
I was searching for stones
In the world of diamonds
