There's nothing to
look forward to.
Tomorrow's dreams
aren't
in my bed.
I want to talk
myself senseless,
And wake up
on the wrong side
of my head.
Author notes
Makes more sense to me personally than any of you'll probably ever be able to fully read into.
On another related note... make of it what you will. This isn't "Mindreaders 101".

echo for me.Also, the wordplay wrapped up nicely in the last line..great.Good luck with this great little poem,Rob -
Love it.
I like, sweet and to the point. Brilliant. -
I enjoyed the play on words... wrong side of the head instead of bed. That's quite creative of you. Language is accessible while still maintaining a degree of poetic flare. I enjoyed this.

Hmm, I see this is classified under lyrics and I see now, after reading it, why it was put there. It actually can be put in almost any genre. As far as the poem itself, deep...very deep...I know you said it will make more sense than most will realize and I believe you are correct. I read into but not to the full extent I don't believe. Lovely write though. Makes the reader think. Nice job. Keep up the good work. Love always,

fantastic
very true, I don't think I fully understood it, but I loved the last line,because how many of us have wanted to wake up like that? to a totally new dimension? great work all summed up in a nutshell. -

i agree with your authors comment...the title alone opens up a lot of doors as to where this poem could go or did go. if that makes sense. anways. sad, but well penned. interesting and powerful.
