Blank leaf
... ... ... ...
I forgot about myself
Separate...
Detached
Illogical feelings
Vague deductions
Isolation
I did not know...
Where non-existence ends...
And existence begins
Although there were ...
Perfect intellectual reasons...
For both of them
A blank leaf at the beginning of a book
And a blank leaf at the end of of the same book
A book of dreams...
Recurring dreams
A series of events started...
And it went on during six years
When I forget myself...
When I forget myself...
... ... ... ...

Dreams, for me, are a nightly, strange, low-key horrorscape*.
I'm not really sure what I feel about the blank leaf at the beginning of the book, but the blank one at the end says the story is not yet finished, and I take some comfort in that.
I really enjoyed this piece, Marks.

Your words are left ringing in my ears... 'When I forget myself'... and dreams, that's normally where I'm lost and free from the, sometimes excruciating, daily grind of being me... Your poem has a more specific underlying meaning, I'm sure but that's what struck me... deeply.
Are those blank pages a sort of symbolism for having a clean slate?... Starting from scratch maybe?... I'm uncouth and always assumed it was just decorational custom ... lol.... 🤷♀️...
Enjoyable pondering!
Wonderful work, Marks.
I always have fun and appreciat the journeys you pieces take me on...
Much love, my friend 🙏🏻
