Why says the mind
As the cork gets unscrewed from the bottle my mind twists around the earth looking for a way back to memories of yesterday's gone by. So many unheard of adventures that occupies the mind of a forming young man. Apologies needed but never gotten or issued. Out under the desert sky after sunset with the stars holding all your secrets and never betraying your trust. How your thoughts divide from manic state to senility beyond reason and screaming about it won't settle anything. In your mind there was a magic in your youth that could never be explained and yet could be ruined and or altered by a high-school crush. Early lessons about females can build scar upon scar. Do you really want to relive it all even in memory?
